I've downloaded the F9 DVD twice so far (with more downloads

Opera and once with I disremember what.
Both K3B and Brasero have crashed repeatedly while trying to burn
them; but I've got three DVDs that *look* like they contain F9 -- if you
put one in a running machine and examine the content display.
I've tried each DVD with a laptop (T30 thinkpad) and a PC, both
now running F8, installed from my home-burned media; the PC (an old ASUS)
goes back to about FC2 or 3.
Neither machine has been able to boot from any of them.
Either I'm doing something wrong with woeful consistency -- or
I've actually run into a corrupted source, haven't I? (They have all come
from my nearest mirror, mirror.cc.vt.edu, which is two or three miles
from here.)
Much more probably, of course, it's me. Any guesses what I could
be fouling up?
First, run an sha1sum against your .iso files, compare that against the
contents of the SHA1SUM file and verify you got them uncorrupted. Once
you're sure you got them cleanly, THEN you try burning them. I use
good ol' growisofs using
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=/path/to/.iso
