How could media that passes an md5sum be bad?  I've not burned physical 
media, and I'm "mounting" the cdrom in a virtual drive...

Checking again, all ISO images pass /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/checkisomd5. 

The install has failed several times at exactly the same point:
1) Redhat 8.x running VMWAre 4.x, twice.  640Mb on main machine, 192 on 
virtual, almost no load on system
2) Windows XP,  running VMWare 3.x, 512Mb on laptop, 192 on visual 
machine, 20% cpu on average
