I downloaded the iso from the fedoraproject.org website, and burned the DVD on a Windows XP laptop. I just downloaded fsum from slavasoft, which allows me to check the sha1sum via Windows XP, and ran a test on the DVD iso, and the SHA1 sums matched, so it looks like I'm working off a good DVD image.

It's also to assure that you have a factory iso and not one that joe cracker has substituted for you. That's why you should test with sha1sum after download *in addition* to testing during the install process.
