I burned and tried different distros and all of them the DVD reader laser was moving back and forth like mad and loading and install was so slow that it impossible to continue. Tried 2 different readers.
Fedora Silverblue: the optic reel was moving like mad and loading was so slow that it triggered the anaconda text installer
It stayed there for hours so I desisted
Elementary OS 8: Same as Fedora Silverblue but at least could load the wallpaper installer UI. Not possible to load live OS
Lakka OS: Lakka state on their site DVD's can' t be used anymore for their images https://www.lakka.tv/get/linux/generic/
Yeah I know USB thumb drives are like £5 but I wanted to have my silly little fun with my discs and newly bought burner. I remember when I started using linux distros didn't had this kind of problem and live versions could be used, slow but usable.
Wild idea: check the condition of the SDD (presumably) that you're trying to install to. After all, an installation has two endpoints, and if the target disc is on its last legs and throwing SMART errors, it ain't gonna be too happy getting written to.
SSD is a bit optimistic for that laptop, quick Google shows a potential 5400rpm sata drive
