KIB: did you set it to verify?
I used Brasero; iirc, I did tell it to verify.
3) did you go into BIOS and set the DVD drive to be
first in the boot order?
If only I could get into the BIOS, I think I'd be home free, or
almost, provided I could also get it to automount media
4) did you check the check sum of your iso?
Ouch! I think not.
5) can you read the DVD when in FC32?
Dunno: I can't get it mounted. (I have root access, but don't know
what to call the DVD.)
6) what was the error message?
Error message? Error message?? Whence?
