What and how are you downloading Lion with? It looks like you're using a BitTorrent client? If so, that is not going to work.

It's difficult to tell what's going on but it looks like your hard drive has problems which is why the installation of Lion is failing. You need to verify the hard drive with Disk Utility and correct any errors. If the disk won't verify, you will need to change it out.
