It's not a copy. Read the thread again to see what I'm letting him do.
I have been following the entire thread. You are having him do a "dd" copy of the first gigabyte of the DVD to null. That's done to test the DVD hardware and media. dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000 oflag=direct You also asked to use yast in text mode to do an autocheck of the installation media. A checksum test.
In addition, he didn't do another test.
Best.
