It would be a good idea to read the list guidelines, as it has several points that will help you get answers. Two problems that stick out in your message is the subject doesn't give a clue to your problem, and you should not post in HTML. Many people on the list will skip your message because of these problems. Guidelines: <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines" target="_blank">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines</a> Now, on to your problem. It sounds like you have a bad DVD. I would first check that your image downloaded properly. If the sha26sum matches, then I would try burning the DVD at a slower speed. There is also an option on the DVD to check if it was burned correctly, but I am not sure if yours will get that far. It is definitely a bad DVD.
