I wish. Failed again.

I downloaded the DVD and it passed the sha1sum test. I then burned it
with K3B at 4x speed and it failed the media test. I installed anyway
since I was putting it on an unused partition. It installed, but
instead of putting GRUB on the first sector of the boot partition, it
wrote GRUB to the MBR. (Yes I did make the correct choice in the
Advanced Boot Options page.) I recovered fine using my FC3 Rescue Disc.
Has anyone had the DVD pass the media test?
Can anyone confirm the GRUB problem?
I will burn another one at slower speed and try again.
