Arch 0.8 CD - "Could not find kernel image: linux"

I only get

Unknown keyword in config file.
Unknown keyword in config file.
Could not find kernel image: linux

when I try to boot the arch 0.8 base installer.

I checked md5 of the iso I downloaded and it seems to be correct:

1e0e9f3715d3c51129395570e01b9bc2  Archlinux-i686-0.8-Voodoo.base.iso

What can be done?

I wonder if the CD is defective or if it was burnt at a high speed that your CD cannot read.
In other words, may be you are reading from a coaster.

Ok sorry for the forum noise, my cdwriter is producing coasters. I moved the cdwriter to another pc and it now works fine. Possibly bad RAM?
