FC3 mediacheck -> ide=nodma just works...

[Satin Knight]

I'm not sure the answer is that simple.  I too had all of my FC3 CDs
fail when I burned them from my dual boot WinXP/FC2 machine (burned
from WinXP using Nero & Roxio). They failed in MediaCheck and when I
went ahead and tried to use them they failed while loading.  But since
they passed MD5 I moved them over to my wife's WinXP box and burned
the first disk.  It passed MediaCheck and so I burned the lot. 
Installation went wonderfuly with this set.  So if there is an IDE
problem, it is Motherboard or CD burner specific.
