For the other people, they get a failure that may, depending on things

it's also, at least to some degree, correct.  Linux didn't read the disk

will happen again, too.

Or to ask it another way... if you use ide=nodma  and mediacheck
succeeds when before it failed.. does that mean that you should then
use ide=nodma  when doing the actual install on that system?

When I ran into this problem I had already checked the CDs on another system(they passed) so I didn't check them again. I needed the ide=nodma to get the install to actually read the disk that it had just read to boot.
