I just wanna make sure that what I understand to be true is, in fact, true. If I burn a .iso file to CD, then do "dd if=/dev/cdrom of=<somefile>.iso bs=1k", then do "md5sum <somefile>.iso", the output should be the same as the md5sum of the original file. If not, then I have a bad burn. I think I probably have a bad CD-RW drive since I've yet to burn a .iso file and get matching md5sums with this drive. It's a Sony CRX140E drive on a box at work.
Also, can't I just do "md5sum /dev/cdrom" and get a valid md5sum? REgards, Tim _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
