If this was on only one system, or on only one DVD reader I would understand, but nope .. I even deleted and re-downloaded the ISO to see if the MD5 was wrong, but to no avail. I'm really stumped here, any suggestions?
Is that the same DVD spindle? Some people here had similar problems and the problem was in raw DVDs. Cure was to use media from different (better) manufacturer.
I would try to set burn speed very low and see if that helps.
As stated above it is "very" likely that you may have a bad spindle of blank DVDs, I have ran into this on quite a few occasions. It's always been an issue for me, if I decided to be cheap at the time of purchase. In other words, I quit buying the cheapest blank DVDs.
Try burning it at 2x. Yeah, it sucks and takes a bit of time but I have gotten bad media disks to work.

If the md5sum is correct on the ISO image. 56f85b81b3df459ebe165f49ec62fb8 openSUSE-11.0-RC1-DVD-ppc.iso 8af26dc94fff979af32a9c4ae3aba8ac openSUSE-11.0-RC1-DVD-x86_64.iso 509e3088a189fabbc5d69376b6ee223f openSUSE-11.0-RC1-DVD-i386.iso
Then before installing I would do a diskcheck. Sadly SUSE left that out of the boot choices on the installation DVD but it will return on the final I hear. Go to a working SUSE system. For example 10.3 under YaST and choose "Media Check" and see if that gives you a clean bill of health on the DVD prior to installing. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
