IO error reading from CD or writing to your HDD? > is there a way to check the CD I have burnt ? Easy way: mount your CD on an working system and try copying the entire contents of the CD to HDD. If you get a read error, then the CD is buggered. You may as well do this on another computer to rule out possible CD/DVD drive issues. Harder way: run as root, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/test.iso If it completes successfully, you have no errors on your CD. md5sum of test.iso should match with your original iso images. Smarter way: when you burn any iso to disc, ensure you always verify after writing. - Raja _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
