Strange,

I did this and the installation stopped in the beginning.

http://catbe.dyndns.org/fotos/acer_aspire_one.jpg

shows you the picture of the screen.

It says 'you may safely reboot your system' - did it leave you with a good
running system, presumably your old one?

What could be the difference?

Dunno. Two things come to mind - a different model of USB dvd-player (don't know whether a hardware problem there is possible), or a different chipset
somewhere in the hardware even though it claims to be the same model.

Did you have a thread anywhere with a subject of failed install, and include
that screenshot?  I know there have been some install problems with some
hardware, but haven't been following those threads.

Maybe indeed the DVD player is not the right one???

I did published the same link before.
