Thank you for all your help.

(a) is no longer an issue -- my ISO verifies the other MD5SUMs posted to
this list (and for good measure passes "Check Installation Media" within
VMware).

(c) probably isn't an issue, as I've tried nautilus-cd-burner, Brasero,
and K3B, and they've all failed for me.

I've created 6 coasters today, so I don't think (d) is at issue, this is
far too consistent.

Which leaves (b) my DVD writer is bad.  As trying to burn on another
computer which has successfully burned DVDs before also results in
coasters (3 of them), I think I'm going to have to blame (e) the blank
DVD-R media itself. :-/

Thank you for your assistance.
