The hardware isn't faulty - Distributing Linux on a media set that requires brand new hardware is a little bit of a flakey idea, in my opinion.
(Various people have already said this, but let's spell it out ...)
A DVD drive which doesn't read double layer DVDs is broken. All DVD drives read double layer DVDs since it's part of the DVD specification. If yours doesn't, it's either broken or not a DVD drive. Contact your vendor and demand a replacement drive.
Thanks for the link, that and google answered my questions about my old DVD drive {snip} Mike
