Other Help Topics :: basic help with cd



ello, ermm....i downloaded damnsmalllinux, live CD (ISO), i have no idea how to burn it onto a CD so it will boot linux up, i think i have to set it as an image, but im not sure how to do dat either ( using nero buring rom )
cheerz for any replies :D

I use Burncdcc ... all it does is burn iso's

always check the Read Verify box and it will check the burn for errors

you can use cd2iso to calculate an md5sum of the cd
if it burned pefectly, the md5sum should be the same as the iso's md5sum

you can calculate the md5sum of a cd in linux by typing
md5sum /dev/cdrom
if the md5sum is the same as the iso's md5sum, it's a perfect burn
if you get read errors or a different md5sum,
it still may be a perfect burn ... or not
google for ways to get around the buggy drivers
