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 ----cjs reply---- it would be a good idea to elaborate a bit more on this problem. The possible problems are: bad md5sums (both on the cd and the iso) a bad burn (where nero didn't burn the dvd correctly) if your md5sums check out on your iso file and not your dvd, then more then likely you had a bad burn. the best way to fix this is to erase the disk (if you are using a dvd-rw) and re-burn the image. ----end of reply---- ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
