have you made installs with it before now?

same box?

if different, are you sure that drives are assigned correctly?

just for heck of it, can you run a sha1sum against /dev/sr0 to see what
sum you get?

i know, sounds far out, but is one more way to prove disk and drive.

[in addition. should have added before, but got interrupted]

in an install attempt prior to f8, i got a similar error. system had a dvd
read only drive and problem curred when i put current r/w dvd in system.
possibly drivers with dvd did not recognize read only drive correctly. i
did get a good install, but because i was still trying to use lilo for boot
i had failures at boot time, so i stayed with mandriva until now.

this is reason for questions above.

if you do have problem continue, and system is different, possible making
an install from a spare partition will cure problem.
