Fedora Core 3 Test 3 Discs Not Working

[Maciej Żenczykowski]

I think the proper solution would be for not only the MD5SUM to be 
embedded on disk but also the data length of the data to checksum.  Or is 
this already done and the problem are read errors near the end of the CD 
if there is insufficient padding - if so, isn't this a kernel error?

Cheers,
MaZe.
