Should I continue with the download? Will this self correct? Hate to waste more time waiting on something that will tell me this failed.

I edited this post to include anoother (not sure if its the last) logger message.

Can anyone tell me if this download is usable? I don't want to burn another cd to find out this doesn't work. I'll run the md5summer on it to see what it says ... but again, is that even worth it with the error messages saying that certain 'pieces' are suspect?

Can't answer this on my own ... don't know even about it.

Edited again ... ran all the downloaded files through md5summer and all are green (ok) ... so I'm going to risk a disc ... should I burn the dvd version to a dvd or a cd? I thought I read an earlier post to burn it to a cd ... at slow speed ... so that is what I'll do.

Well I didn't do it ... I burned the image at Auto (max) speed and the burn failed:

So now it's another DVD at 4x speed ... We'll see.

Looks like this one burned ok ... 4x, Maxell DVD-R 4.7 GB 16X.
