That looks like either corrupted media or a corrupted download. I get this sometimes if I download using a browser downloader instead of downloading in terminal. Or sometimes this just happens for reasons I can not explain. To download ISO’s I always check checksum files and I use this:

$ aria2c -c -m 0 http://example.com/file.iso
