    what I tried was to test the media without using mediacheck,
    what you do is download your iso's, use the sda1sum utility to
    test the downloads, then burn the cd's.
    Next, use losetup and mount commands to mount a iso file as a iso9660
    filesystem and mount to mount the burned CD. Use the diff command with
    options "-qr" to do a recursive directory tree vs tree comparison of the
    mounted iso file vs the burned cd you have mounted. diff used that
    way will compare the corresponding files and the q makes it just
    report the fact of a difference. When I did this, it confirmed the
    files were the same, even though my mediacheck runs found
    errors.
