Media Check FAILED....

After typing "linux ide=nodma" at the installer boot prompt all four
CD's passed the media check. Without the ide=nodma argument they all
failed. I had verified the sha1sum on the downloaded isos. I had also
successfully diffed the images with the created cd's after mounting the
images with the -o loop option. I had similar problems with FC4t2.
Here's my question: Should I use the ide=nodma option each time I load
FC4 or is the problem only with media check?
