Anyone seen this error when starting an installation ?

I have seen this a couple of times when installing RHEL - was never really bothered about it as I never really run into any problems once the os is installed.
I always thought it might be a read error but now I got the same error on a server which just mounts the iso onto a remote administration card (ipmi) and I had the same error when installing RHEL desktop.
So I am wondering if this is a 5.3 bug of some sort.
RedHat support also says its "just" a read error but it is quite a coincidence that I receive the same error on both, server and client OS whether I install it from an iso or a burned media ..
Just wondering if I am the only one seeing this, if this is the case then I might as well just download the iso again.

It is just weird that I have the same error when installing the server and desktop version (which are both entirely different isos).
But yea - gonna re-download ..
Oh but having said that - I do not see that error when I install RHEL on a virtual machine - only on physical machines .... So confusing lol ..My own knowledge base made public: http://open902.com -

I used to work in technical support as well so I know the whole deal with closed tickets and statistics etc., but I personally always tried to at least escalate it further if I smelled a bug or something .. But this was more like "I don't care if this is a bug, but it is the end of the month so I want to have the closed ticket on my stats" kinda callMy own knowledge base made public: http://open902.com
