All three of these have something to do with the install disk.  Do
the size and MD5 hash of 4.4-install.iso check out?  That SIGSEGV
during install seems weird to me, but I suppose it could be caused by,
say, a broken executable on the install disk.

To my knowledge, the ISO images are both full and non-fake, or we
would have seen a *lot* more complaints about them on the list.
