   Comparing md5sums, they are the same torrent iso's formerly 
available to Club members. IOW's they are _not_ LG friendly.

   I d/l'd '9.2-download.md5sums.asc' from the /iso mirror and 
they match my Club torrent iso's,

They are the same ISO's as the Club ones, and  the same 10mdk kernels
used for install, and as installable kernels as on every shipped cd/dvd...

Since LG has posted updated firmwares on their homepages, users are
encouraged to check if their cdrom/dvdrom needs an update and if so..

they have to update them _before_ installing MDK 9.2...

and since this is a serious bug from LG:s side,  users should upgrade
their f/w ASAP anyway...

But it's not clear if these are the updated ISOs that overcome the LG bug.
I've checked a mirror and the 9.2 ISOs come with a "Readme LG" text file 
suggesting to upgrade the drives' firmware anyway...
