All 4 CDs (FC4) fails the test
I got some errors when trying to install FC4 (can't remember them, but they told me I could not use /dev/hda1 (my root partition) before I rebooted (?). So I now did that test to check the CDs before installing. None of the CDs passed! I have downloaded from LQ ISO (which are from the fedora official download site, right?).
Does anyone else have this problem? EDIT: # cdrecord -v dev=/dev/cdrom FC4-i386-disc1.iso etc... Made a sha1sum and compared to those on LQ ISO, all correct. |
The media check is buggy and can fail even if the media is alright. Ever since FC1, I have only passed the media check twice, but the installation has always been okay. Do you have an unusal configuration on your hard drive?

I say if your SHA1SUM's come out fine then don't bother with the media checks.

Have you tried a different burn program? I was having the same problem when I tried to burn using Deepburner went and downloaded the trial for Nero and they than all passed on the first try. since I'm new to linux I didn't want to take any chances. I did notice that Nero took longer to burn even though they both said they where burning at the same speed.

I don't mind taking chances, I have been around for a while and if it won't work out I will just try another distro and wait for Core 5 and burn that instead (using cdrecord). :) It's not that much trouble for me actually, I was just wondering if anyone else ever had the same problem. Regards. |
