A couple more data points. I had better luck with FC3. Those disks were burned from Windows using Roxio. I tried the FC4t2 disks with cdrecord on linux as well as Roxio on windows and the disks never passed the mediacheck. Going to one of the text terminals allowed me to see an MD5SUM value which was always the same. I've seen some subtle problems caused by loads from disks with errors in them. They all failed the iso image test on the burning machine though.
