I had bad disc burns on RHL8. The discs media checked alright on the 
machine that burned them. They failed media check on another computer. 
The discs were less than perfect on both machines.

you might try ftp transferring the ISO files to a machine running a 7.x 
version of RHL or to a win machine to burn the CD's.

I had an acer cd burner on an 800 MHz computer (815 chipset). I couldn't 
burn CD's through 8.0 and two phases of the following beta. RHL9 worked 
to burn CDs.

Just my experience. I believe Anaconda worked erratically.
