Bug ID: 471418
Summary: isoimagewriter demands some stuff before it starts...
I don't know what it wants to see
Classification: Applications

Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux

SUMMARY
***
I tried to write a Neon image to a usb medium with isoimagewriter but is wants
to see certain files before starting to work. I don't know what. What I want to
say is: when you are clever enough to figure out what files isoimagewriter
wants to see then you are also clever enough to say "sudo dd
if=imageofdistribution.iso of=/dev/sdb status=progress"
But wouldn't it be great if isoimagewriter (perhaps optionally) checked the
checksum itself? I mean: if Dolphin can find the files used to verify and
perform checksum on the file (in the properties dialogue) why can't
isoimagewriter?
That way isoimagewriter could also even be a more of a universal imagewriter .
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download (neon) iso image
2. Start isoimagewriter and point it to the downloaded image
OBSERVED RESULT
Isoimagewriter starts asking for stuff and won't start doing it's job
EXPECTED RESULT
Isoimagewriter (optionally) verifies the checksum of the file at hand and after
that do it's job.
