Hi,
You haven't provided details on "the way you used to burn cd's".
I use K3b and before you actually burn the cd there's a check box called
"Verify Written Data" and if you select it it will do this: It will compare
the iso mage's md5 checksum against the written-data checksum telling you
whether they're binary equal or not.
Check it out: www.k3b.org. It comes with Fedora Core 2 or 3.
Hope this helps,
Jorge
