Ok, lets find out if you have a good burn. First, determine how many 2048 byte blocks there are in the .iso image as it exists on your hard drive. kcalc is handy for that. Size in bytes / 2048=answer And it should be an integer answer, not fractional since the .iso is in round blocks for its size if properly built.. Then do: #dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=number from above answer | sha1sum This will take a while as it will need to read the whole disk up to 'count' blocks and feed that to sha1sum. The answer you get should be the same as the answer for the .iso itself. If not, then it wasn't burnt correctly. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
