I presume you have checked that the image you are installing from is
good. When you boot the first thing it should show is a black screen
with an image of a little man and a keyboard at the bottom of the
screen. If you hit a key then you will see an option to check the
files on the image.

If the image is good then I imagine the problems you have been having
are nothing to do with which particular software you are trying to
install.
