Don't know if that is the one you downloaded. It is not unheard of for the copy on one website to be bad, so repeated downloading might not help.<br>
Do your due diligence.<br>

I would not be surprised about those strings being present... they would be delivered if the first-stage boot loader had difficulty.<br>

its an iso. debian-7.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso I didn't see a checksum for iton the debian web site. I have downloaded several times<div><div><br>
and burned the dvd<br>
more than once on different machines. all with same result.<br>
Very near the beginning of the iso is the text "isolinux.bin missing or corrupt"<br>
Also the text "Operating system load error"<br>

Is the net install an iso? If so, check the md5sum for the image you downloaded. Then verify that it burned properly. I<br>
know no details of the current Debian images, but I have encountered problems in all three of these ways in the past.<br>
