If by "doesn't read the CDs" you mean you can't boot from the first CD,
this is a known issue with test2.  You can either boot from the first CD
of test1 and switch, or you can download boot.iso from the download
server under the /iso directory. The i386 version supports all 32 bit
Intel/AMD chips. Also check the md5 sum of your iso's before burning and
do the media check during install to make sure your disks are good.
Good luck!
