I saw a very strange error while installing debian cd -

kernel panic - not syncing vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown block (254,6)

What might be the reason for this error? !!!

I've never seen it before :-?

You can:

1/ Check the validity of the original ISO file checksum
2/ Try to install from USB stick instead
