Alright, I found the bit I was looking for. To review: I downloaded
the four FC3 isos and burmed them. All the md5sums checked out.
Disc 1 booted fine, but two of the four discs failed the media check.
I booted disc 1 again with the command: linux mediacheck nocddma.
After this, the media check
I seem to recall having a similar kind of issue with FC3 -- I burned
the .isos, booted up the first one and all went well. I did a media
test and found that discs 1 and 3 (maybe 4) were fine but the others
read as corrupted. I double checked the md5sums and the images were
OK.
I then tried burning

OK, the jury's in, I have a bad burner. I went to
work and burned a "disk 1", and tried it out that night. Worked
great. Then I burned disk 2, 3, and 4 on my home machine. Only disk 2
and 3 worked. I had to burn the last disk at work. Strange though,
it's a dvd / cd burner. Burned dvd's
OK, this is getting ridiculous! Yes, I burned them
as iso images. And, yes, I turned on the cdrom as the first boot
device in the bios. And, yes, I tried booting them on a drive that was
made this century. I'll take the cd's to work tomorrow and see how
they work on a couple of newer machin

Let me guess, you are burning the ISO's as files, and not as 'CD-ROM
image' (or whatever it is called)? ;-)
In K3B or Nero you need to click another menu item to do this (btw, it's not
in Nero's wizard).
Hmmm
- All MD5 checksums match perfectly
- Tried two different burners
- Tried both R and RW media
- Tried three different iso's, all from different sources, with
validated MD5's
- Tried booting on three different computers
Like I said, I'm new to Redhat. I'm probably missing something

Well it's pretty clear that it's a bad burn, and the fact that it
happened twice indicates a problem either with the .iso or with your
burner. Did you verify the .iso's md5 output? If the md5 checked out,
then about all I can suggest is that you try it with a different
burner.
FWIW, I picked up a
Yes, that was the first thing I did. The bios is
definitely set to boot from CDROM first. I tried the cd in two other
computers. I didn't work on those either, so I reburned the CD. It
does the same thing. Very strange!

I saw a post on a redhat site that said the fedora
project uses a boot system that doesn't support cdrom drives built
before 1997, which this one might be. Could that be it?

I think so. I used Nero and selected File ->
Burn Image -> Navigate to iso file -.> picked it and burned it.
Does that sound right?
