Bad disks that don't burn correctly are often the result of downloads even 
after rsync has been used.  I was able to get disc1 and disc2 to burn 
properly consistently but never did get disc3 or disc4 to burn without 
errors and I used an automated script to do the burns myself I had rolled. 
If all you can get good from the site is fedora-core-1 yarrow I don't 
advise attempting an upgrade from that version to current.  I tried that 
and got four programs in unresolveable dependency chains so I decide to 
try installing what disks I can without running into the error again on 
disc 3.  I figured I could make an initrd at the error condition; then 
reboot, then later do yum install *.  Wrong.  I couldn't get the ethernet 
up and connected on the internet.  The fedora installation doesn't mark a 
package as a needed install  when it encounters a disk error, it just 
hangs on the error program and offers no means to skip  a defective 
program and go onto another program and mark the error program yum could 
take a script once connection were established and  download the missing 
packages.
