I booted the new x86_64 dvd and asked anaconda to check it. It said it was

reset and start over and bypass the media check. This happened on two
different machines.
There's a race condition at work there. The fix? Slooooow dooooown.
1) Test completes and the CD is ejected.
2) Re-insert the CD
3) Wait a few seconds for the CD to be detected (watch the drive light)
4) Hit "Continue"
and you should be fine. If you end up with the error dialog: Insert the
CD, *wait*, then hit OK.
I was about to ask if that was a known/documented issue for future work in
anaconda... then decided to search for myself (yay overcoming my laziness).
The problem is reported a few times, but that has been pretty much the same
behavior after mediachecks for a very long time.
