Even with the mini CDs, the test applet reports that the _DVD_ is broken, having failed the checksum. With the DVD, I tried both DVD as source, and HTTP as source, and with the -NET, HTTP as source, and all failed in exactly the same place. I find it really hard to believe the media could really result in the identical problem each time after so many different tries and medias.
Try the media test in a running system and see what happens. Do you
Exactly what running system? I have only one Mac, and it has no functional operating system yet installed.
Do you not have another Linux system available? Any of them should be able to check the burned DVD. You can even do that in Windows. In OpenSUSE, there's a media check in Yast.
know the media is OK?
I used the last of the previous (Memorex) batch to do disk #3. I got no bad burns I'm aware of out of the batch of 50.
Perhaps you got a bad batch. What about the burner?
I used the new batch, a different brand (Office Depot), in a different computer, with a different burner, with wodim (on 11.1 Factory) at 8X, to make a 4th disk, and it also fails the built-in checksum test. I put the 3rd disk, made in the first puter with the first burner (10.2), into the 2nd puter and burner, ran md5sum on it, and got a perfect match to the MD5SUM file content I downloaded for it.
For anyone who might be able to tell if there's anything I might do differently to succeed, I used the network and captured a y2logs set: http://fm.no-ip.com/tmp/SUSE/YaST2/y2logsppc.tgz
