Double-Sided DVD

This DVD is a double-sided disc. A DVD device always reads the side of the disc that is facing down. This DVD is labeled conventionally – the label you see as you place the disc into the tray applies to the data on the opposite side. If you are installing Linux Mint, the Linux Mint label should be facing up in the tray.
