Now I am redownloading the CentOS 5.1 x86 DVD install image, and I will

If it succeeds, I will burn it to a DVD-RW and retry the same things.

SL 5.0 x86 DVD and CentOS 5.0 x86 DVD work OK.
ALSO ... if doing to VMWare, you can just point to the ISO file as a
CDROM and boot from it directly.

Try to install from that and see if it passes the media test.


As I said above, this is what I am going to do first.


That should help determine if the problem is a bad DVD image when burned
or some kind of kernel boot issue.

Not passing an md5sum/sha1sum can be caused by many things, some of
which are hardware based but do not affect the install.


In my case the sha1sum/md5sum tests are succeeding.

Well ... one of them is succeeding (the one on the file before you start) and the other is not. The internal media check is comparing the burned ISO to an embedded md5sum that was added at build time.
