OS: Ubuntu 7.10 x86.
Unfortunately I still got the problem.
I downloaded the CentOS 5.1 x86 DVD image, it passed the md5sum/sha1sum tests, I burned it with nerolinux with verification, I copied all the contents of the burned DVD to a hard disk directory successfuly, it passed the media test during installation and then I got the screenshot attached error message.
vmware version: 6.03 with IDE virtual hard disk.
DVD used: TDK DVD+RW
DVD Recorder: NEC ND-2510A with firmware 2.18.
I faced similar problems when I tried to install CentOS 5.1/Scientific Linux 5.1 x86 from their DVDs in my natural machine (the firmware was 2.18 and it has been a stable one which I have been using for a long time, it is the original stock firmware, not some hacked one)/
CentOS 5.0 x86 and Scientific Linux 5.0 x86 DVDs were installing OK.
Now I am using the CentOS 5.1 x86 DVD image directly under VMware to perform the installation and will report in another message what will happen.
