DVD install of 8.2 hangs revisited

I just ran across an issue that was reported here a couple of weeks ago. I just installed a Samsung combo CDRW/DVD drive in my machine to install 8.2 from. As soon as the install tries to sort through the available packages, the install hangs. The DVD does not seem to be read at this point like happens with the CD install method (which is running now as I type, although on a different machine obviously!). The CD's seem to install just fine. Also, this DVD installed perfectly well on my laptop with it's Sony DVD/CDRW drive.

Just thought I'd throw it out there for the benefit of others that may be wondering if anyone else is having the issue.
