I get the same md5sum value that you do :

$  md5sum shrike-i386-disc1.iso
400c7fb292c73b793fb722532abd09ad  shrike-i386-disc1.iso

The md5sum value for disc 1 is wrong, though I have no idea why. 
Perhaps RedHat released an updated iso image but never updated the
MD5SUM file ???

I would say that your iso image for disc 1 is good and ready to go.  

Is there a reason that you are installing RHL 9?  Why not install fedora
core 1 ( aka RHL 10 ) ?  Just a thought.

Bye,

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,--
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
