DVD Finalization appears to corrupt FC6 installer

[Charles Butterfield]

Perhaps it's just a coincidence, but I burned two DVDs of the FC6
installation with finalization and they were both corrupt somehow.  The
third DVD, burned from the same downloaded ISO file was burned without
finalization and is not corrupt.  Does this make sense?  Is it in some
sense obvious?  Anyway, if the finalization truly causes a problem,
perhaps this posting will help someone else.

 

Some details:

*         FC6 downloaded via BitTorret

*         double checked download via sha1sum.exe (after initial
problems).  Naturally the file passed (thanks BitTorrent!)

*         The first two DVD were burned with finalization (using Nero
Burning ROM SE 6.0 and a Sony DRU-710A)

*         Both of these failed the "Check CD" phase (and both failed
miserably when I tried to install anyway)

*         The third DVD was burned from the same download, but without
finalization, passed the CD check and is presently installing away.
