Fennix and Ken:

Okay ... I'm more than willing to try anything, though this seems a bit counter-intuitive (so it probably should read "Okay? ...").

I'll give it a shot tomorrow.

    Ken:

    If you see later post, I provided output from 3 of the vterms
    (f3,f4,f5) and am still looking into how to get around the fact
    that I think there isn't a driver that works for the DVD in the
    machine. That being said, I never did try a power off, power on,
    boot off DVD w/o media check.

    Suggestions from any and all welcome (right now I am burning 6 CD
    boot media to see if the CD is at least understood for booting.

    Thanks,
    Paul

            Put them in DVD/CD drive of Linux box. I ran the media

            an error box that
            say, in text in upper left, "ok" and has a button to push
            which says, of
            course, "ok". Both DVDs do this and I tried on two
            different Linux boxes.
            Let's just say I'm not getting too many hints out of the
            process of what
            might be going on.

        Now that you know the media passes the media check, have you tried
        just booting off the DVD and skipping the media check?

I think that Ken Murray has the right idea. My experience with the installation of F9 is the same. When I do the media check it reports a good disk and then cannot continue the installation. Reboot and skip the media check and the installation proceeds normally. On my system this has always been the case for the numerous F9 install/re-installs that I have needed to do.
