I burned four write-once normal dvds: all are wrong, but equally wrong, 
all have the same wrong checksum.

I also tried to burn a RW unit, but it failed completely. I can not even 
reformat it, perhaps it is not compatible wiht my burner. No idea about 
that one.

The burner is relatively new, two months.

I haven't yet.

Didn't know that was possible. Doing it now. You mean yast of 10.1 testing 
the dvd of 10.2?

But how can four different DVDs have an error in the same way? The errors 
would be random, they would not have all the same checksum

Three came from the same box that I have burned the other 20 Ok, the 
fourth from a new box.

Yast says the DVD is correct:

  Check started (/dev/hdc)...
  Identification: openSUSE-10.2-dvd5-download-10.2
  Medium: CD1
  Size: 3609402 kB
  Result: OK


Weird and more weird. The checksum says it is incorrect, Yast says it is 
Ok.. Diff program error reading from device?
