Is that a "text" sha256sum?  You probably need to run sha256sum in 
"binary" mode:

sha256sum -b Fedora-11-i386-DVD.iso

No, that can't be it, as it gives me the same (good) hash with and 
without the -b/-t options.

Are you running sha256sum against the .iso file?  Or against a burned 
DVD????  sha256sum should only be run against the .iso file before 
burning it.
