No it's not. And it's actually not the image - Knoppix has most of its stuff in this cloop-compressed file, and the actual image is (at least in the recent months' version) very close to 700MB (e.g. 732921856 bytes which are 698.97 MB for the Jan 19 version). Refering to the original question, I agree with a former answer - if other disks work for you, it's probably a bad disk. Try to burn another one. > > -- > Nadav Har'El | Saturday, Mar 8 2003, 4 Adar II 5763 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- > Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |A man is incomplete until he is married. > http://nadav.harel.org.il |After that, he is finished. > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
