Yes: 
	md5sum -c md5sum.txt.asc	
	CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso: OK

As I said, I installed CentOS-5.6 by http without problem.
I've also installed it by netinstall and on a USB stick.
But I haven't been able to install it from the hard disk, as I said.
I'm pretty sure it is a bug in the installer program.
