Just a word of advice: several versions back, I picked up a nice habit. Every time I burn a new set of ISOs, I run through the 'disk test' routine (which you can do on any Linux box- doesn't have to be during the install) and have it check the disk the first time through.
How *do* you run this exactly? Which command do you enter?
If it passes, I put an "ok" on the disk with a Sharpie. That way I know the image came over properly, and I never have to test (or worry) again.
Ok, and what *is* a sharpie ?
