Your file may have extra bytes appended to the end of it because the

That's the second fault related to checking install discs that ought to
get fixed, rather than worked around. Hasn't anybody worked out why it
doesn't do it correctly?
It's the same fault, namely the kernel returning too much data on some
hardware. If it was an easy fix, I'm sure it would have been done by now.
