I had a similar problem, but I had to burn a CD-R instead of a CD-RW.
And linux mediacheck passed CD-RW on two systems, but same CD-RW
failed on another system!!!
The other 4 CD-RW passed mediacheck on all computers: please note same
brand of support.
And the problem came from disk #4!!!

I seem to recall the same thing happening with FC4.

What I do now is

1) use sha1sum to verify my downloaded ISOs

2) use CD-RWs (as I always have) in case of accidents such as dust on the CD surface

3) get K3B to do a check of the written CD whan it's finished. When K3B gives the "All files seem binary equal" message I deem the CD to be OK.
