# md5sum -b rhel-3-U1-i386-es-disc1.iso
c05e271aab0e2158ddc84a7595204385 *rhel-3-U1-i386-es-disc1.iso
#

This matches.

The error message I get is:

"No Red Hat Enterprise Linux CD was found that matches your boot media."

I used cdrecord to burn the ISO:

# cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=0,1,0 rhel-3-U1-i386-es-disc1.iso
