I successfully booted both the FC2T2 DVD and CD images on my notebook (Fujitsu Lifebook C2010). The CD comes up and prompts to check the media, but the DVD image does not. Shouldn't it?

That depends on how implantisomd5 was called (assuming it was caled at all) during the mastering of the DVD iso. Boot the DVD with 'linux mediacheck' and see if it passes. If if does, it's still a 'good' disk. If not, then either implantisomd5 was not used when the DVD was created, or you have a 'bad' disk. I typically rsync the files to my local machine (minus the SRPMS to save bandwidth) then create my DVD iso locally using my script, so I am not sure what the distribution DVD's default behavior is. It should probably be similar to the downloadable CD isos.

I'll check it when I get home. Looking at the ISO image, it does have the MD5 string, so implantisomd5 was run.

I downloaded all the CDs, ran my script to build a DVD image, and then rsynced that to get the "official" DVD image.

It appears to be the case that implantisomd5 was used, but it was not set to auto-check ("--supported" instead of "--force" I think).
My DVD checked out fine.
