fuckin iso image

[Master of Reality]

I got the right fucking redhat 8.0 images (According to the MD5SUM) and i burned disc 1 and 2... but i tried burning disc 3 and after it says succesfully burned, the CD wont mount it just says:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom1,
       or too many mounted file systems

what the fuck is wrong???!!!
It mounts otehr CDs fine. I even bought a new CD-RW to burn it onto (the store doesnt have any CD-Rs).
I am using Xcdroast and burning at 4X

Did you md5sum the 3rd ISO image to make sure it was good?

Better question: How do you do an MD5SUM?

A good one for the FAQ.

[voidmain]

I don't know if it's good for the FAQ because this is the first time I've heard anyone ask how to do one. But basically you just do "md5sum file.iso" and compare the signature with the signature located in the same place you got the ISO from. See "man md5sum" and http://www.linuxiso.org/viewdoc.php/verifyiso.html

or usually there is an MD5SUM file for the discs you download that will have the sum for all the discs in it, then you just do "md5sum -c MD5SUM.file" in the directory with the CDs, all three of my images were good.

so that's that eliminated, what differences are there between how you did disks one and to and how you did three? is it purely because three is on a CDRW instead of a CDR?

[Master of Reality]

disc 1 is on the same brand CDRW, disc two is on a CD-R. I originally tried to burn Disc2 onto a CDRW but it didnt work either.

I might have to buy a CD-R and try it.

have you tried mounting the iso?

[Master of Reality]

how do i mount an iso?... i though it was 'mount -v -o ro, loop=/dev/loop0 disc3.iso /mnt/iso'

[Master of Reality]

nevermind...
mount /usr/tp/iso/Redhat/psyche-i386-disc3.iso /mnt/iso -o loop=/dev/loop0

yes it mounts fine.

Hmmm, I had to reburn one of the RH8 CDs to get it to work on an older CDRW. If I remember I did a full blank and then burned at 2x speed and it worked fine (or I may have used a different disk, don't recall).  I have all three disks working on Samsung Premium CD-RW 4x 650MB disks. Maybe you are burning at a rate faster than what the disk is rated at?

[Master of Reality]

its made for 4x, 2x, or 1x burning... i might try burning it at 1x
