Thanks for the reply.
I haven't check the md5sum of the downloaded image nor the burned image. How can I check this md5sum from windows?
I'm using " Burn From Image " from NERO to burn this image to dvd. Am I doing the correct thing?
thanks,
nicholas

Dear All,
I just finished download mandriva-free-2007-DVD.iso ( 4.5 Gb ) from mandriva official website. I burn it using Nero... but it seems that the dvd is not bootable. When I open the dvd, there are only 2 folders and 2 file text : i586 and x86_64, release notes.txt. How can I install Mandriva 2007 using this DVD since it's not bootable.
Could you please help me..
Thanks a lot,
nicholas
welcome Nicholas;
we could use a little more information,,,
it is most likely the 'usual culprits';
1st, how sure are you that it was a good download and good burn?
did you check md5sum of downloaded image?
did you check md5sum of burned image?
did you burn an image file to disk, or did you burn the files to disk
from an image file? (do you understand the difference?)
I use a little program called cdcheck to check my burned disks after I
have burned them when in windoz. I think its freeware and you should be
able to find it at tucows.com.
mybad I forgot he was using doze in my last reply, you will need a
doze version of MD5sum.
