Are you saying that you had the "creating filesystem on ..." window
showing the progress bar going back and forth, forever?  And that it was
able to progress past that only after cleaning the DVD?  Because I'm
quite sure that in our case, the problem had nothing to do with a bad
DVD.  We checked it originally after burning it almost a month ago, and
again with mediacheck just before attempting install for the first time
2 days ago.
