I know it's impossible to predict where all the IOErrors coming from bad
media could happen. However I get the feeling that most are coming from
repo.getPackage in yuminstall.py. With that said, I propose the
following patch:
diff --git a/yuminstall.py b/yuminstall.py
index 9303607..61980e4 100644
--- a/yuminstall.py
+++ b/yuminstall.py

We can tweak the error message a little bit. And we can add this same
block in one or two other places later on if need be. I think this will
probably take care of at least 67% of the IOError tracebacks we're
seeing. Live CD installs can probably also be fixed up with just one or
two of these blocks. Objections?
