Hi,

I have been using Fedora thru release 4 but Fedora 5 has me stumped
for what should be a routine thing. I can't burn any CDs without
"media check" telling me that the CD is bad. I have checked md5sums
on all the CDs and they check out fine. When "media check" runs, it
complains about not being able to access repodata.xml. It happens on
the first disk and every other disk of the Fedora 5 distribution. I
use Imation CD-Rs and have not had any problems with them. Googling
for the problem has not helped. Please help before I burn more
coasters. Thanks

First this is a known problem when doing the media check, so either skip it
or fix it;

Now for the kicker.......... the FC5 CD's are missing some 22 files;
