Installation Problems

[Robert Serphillips]

Did you mount the image before you burned it? By mounting the image 
MacOS truncates  the package names that contain to many characters.
During the install they can't be found and this message shows up. Try
burning the image as is. ie just drag the image into toast and let it
detect the type.
