fc4x64 no go

[the]

no matter how many times i dl and burn discs 1-4 of fc4 x64, no disc has made it thruogh the test. 2 different burners, 4 differnet speeds, 3 types of discs, sha1sum comes out right, only disc 5 passes the integrity check

when i try to install anyway i jsut get a nice white screen. wtf mates.

I noticed you're already running FC3 from some of your earlier posts. You might try upgrading via yum instead. If you run into any issues you may also want to take a look at this faq

the mediacheck failing is a bug, use this boot command:

linux ide=nodma

considered that, and decided against it mainly becasue of this from that faq, but i might try it just for shizzles.

x86_64 systems seems to hang during "Running Transaction Test"

Seems related to [WWW] Bug 155730 -- Maybe a update to the "rpm-4.3.3-3.0.fc3" (currently in updates-testing) might solve this. Ugly workaround (to be done as root):
