is the first cd okay? do you have a way to run the md5sums of the isos?

calculate the md5sum of the iso and compare it to the published value.

$ md5sum myfile.iso
(wait for calculation)

you should be able to find the md5sum published at the same location 
that you downloaded the iso. or :

http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/2/i386/iso/MD5SUM

if the md5sum values match, then there is something odd going on. i'm 
guessing you have a corrupt iso (the md5sums will not match on each end).

if the md5sums don't match you will have to try the download again or 
find a better connection until they match.
