Bugzilla – Bug 130161
Unable to use provided iso files
Last modified: 2006-03-24 08:36:05 UTC
I downloaded the .iso files but there´s a problem with iso 3. I burned it several times but when I try to verify it in the installer it hangs at 65%. I get many I/O errors in the kernel log, and even if I cancel the verification the cd drive doesn´t stop reading form the CD until I restart my system. I downloaded the iso several times and burned it several times and the error was always the same so I guess perhaps there´s something wrong with the iso file. The other isos are fine. When I try to burn it with k3b, if I enable verification there´s also an error every time.
Did you use rewritable medium (CD-RW)? Did you try another medium? To check the downloaded ISO you can use the checkmedia utility (use 'checkmedia *.iso' command).
I checked it again and it was a problem with data corruption by my proxy server. Sorry for reporting this.
Closing then.
I experienced this again and I checked the MD5 of the iso this time. I also tested several burners (which work absolutely flawless with other images). I burn them with "CDBurnerXP" under Windows, do you need a special program to burn them?
You need to burn them as ISO files.
