archsetup exitting with error. Install package step

I set the packages I want (I need wireless capabilities) and when I go to the install packages step the installer exits with the errors

cat: /tmp/aif/aif-pacman_installpkg-exit: No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/air/aif-pacman_installpkg-ext': No such file or directory
/usr/lib/aif/core/libs/lib-misc.sh: line 90: kill: Can't: arguments must be process or job IDs
ERROR: Internal AIF error, the following call failed: wait_for pacman_installpkg
Can't open input file in dialog_tailbox().. This should never happen

I then try to rerun arch setup, but the process seems to be still active so when I go to redo my file partioning (which it says I have to redo again). It cant unmount my / partition.
So I checked out fuser, and nothing came up, then I tried killall root. And still nothing. So I rebooted fresh and restarted and got the same situation again.

Any suggestions? google sort of failed me...

extra info:

cdrom, netinstall, Wireless WPA connection

edit2: ill try burning new cd.

edit3: burning new cd with coreinstall failed. I tried it again (downloaded coreinstall instead of netinstall too) and the same thing happened.

OK so if anyone ever has these sorts of problems (everything breaking at once). Suggest they burn their cd at slower x value smile.

fixed!

Netinstall is kinda weird.... I recommend using the core image, it's only about 300MB
