Is it possbiel to have a install cd that does a "successfull instalation" even thought it has errors?

Caus latley i had some REALY odd behaviour..

First i tryed to install my front end.. (via epia) worked fine
then tryed to install my backend.. p4 nvidia/matric gfx(tryed a few diffrent gfx cards) and i had problem, only getting a black screen. Found out i had to run x congigure to get it work, but after that the instalation was realy screwed up, all kinds of errors, and mythtv couldent run.
then i tryed to reinstall my front end again, with the same cd, and now its only getting black screen on boot..

so is it possible to geta Succesfull instalation even thought you install cd got errors?

To elaborate. If you see errors at the end of the install, this is fine. If you get cloop errors, then most likely, this is a bad burn.

alright just had to be sure, i was convinsed that you would get a install error or something. so a new media, and a new download, and a slow burn this time :)

tnx :)

alright this is getting more and more odd.

First my a26 was working fine on my via epia board.. No display problems and so on.

Suddenly it begun to do the "black screen thing" after i did a reinstall.

So i began to think it mabye the cd was going bad..

So i downloaded the new 30.1 version, did a check on the md5 checksum, and it was ok, so i burned it on the slowest speed.. (8x), and did a new install. again same "black screen" when it starts gdm, only way to get display to work under x, is to make a new config file with X -configure, but then i start to get all kinds of odd behavier, myth chrashed and so on.

First this was only a problem on the mashine i was thinking to use as a backend. now its also on my via epia board, wich normaly always worked fine with knoppmyth. This is getting realy fustrated, i already tryed to burn it on another media, with out it did any change, what so ever.

Does any have any ideas on what to try now?
I am so close at just giving up on my tv system, tryed everything i could think of!
