Yes, the installer starts. I don't know how to verify the CD. I *can* 
tell you that when I try to mount the CD on the machine I am trying to 
use it on, I get this message:

# mount /dev/cdrom
udf: registering filesystem
UDF-fs: no VRS found
#

It does successfully mount the CD, however.

One thing that may be important: I burnt the CD using a scsi CDRW drive 
(on one system), and I am trying to install on another system where the 
CD drive is IDE. The README on the install CD indicates that I may need 
a diskette created using one of the image files located on the CD. I 
don't know how to do that either. :|
