How do you burn the isos? With cdrecord? Which command-line options do you use? > I can mount the iso's, but what > find command with md5sum could I use to check all files on those isos? None, except for an RPM-based check of all packages (rpm -Kv filename). But you can verify the MD5 checksum of the burnt CD, which must contain the unmodified ISO data. Provided that the ISO image was burnt correctly, you could "md5sum /dev/cdrom" (which fails only if the CD ends with run-out sectors) or use the "readcd" command to get back the ISO image. If all that fails, "dd" should be able to read the ISO image again, too. -- Fedora Core release 2 (Tettnang) - Linux 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 loadavg: 4.84 4.44 4.32
