Thank you Gerry;
  all the .iso files passed.

However this does not answer why anaconda barfs on all the CD's.

As a test:
[mick at localhost mick]$ sha1sum /dev/cdrom
c7173ddfd202bdca584321bef71b7dab216c0c0b  /dev/cdrom

Which matches the SHA1 file for the rescue CD.
This CD failed the media-check
