I don't think anyone would ever argue that we shouldn't be intergrity checking boot media (or at least presenting the option); while I never considered it a pain point, I guess I could see a new user getting confused and giving up. Maybe the solution is to have the FIRST menu a user sees be "boot or install", and *then* ask whether or not to check the cd for defects (before any booting or installing happens). That way, the user at least knows that the cd check is a normal part of the process; that they are on the right track.
Thoughts?

Michael Forrest, cc'd, is the right person to chat with about the install CD experience. Michael, could you reply on-list for everyone's benefit?
