Have you tested your media?

Look at http://people.redhat.com/~msf/mediacheck.html



Comment 2 Nicolas Proton 2002-06-06 16:33:56 UTC
Yes i have tested my media.
and the test failed .... 
ok thanks a lot.

is it my ISO file which is corrupted ?
or may be i have to burn a new cd with a slower speed ?
or change the kind of my cd ?

Yes.

Seriously it could be any of the above.
Were all your CDs bad, or just 1?



Comment 4 Nicolas Proton 2002-06-07 07:47:29 UTC
no just 1 cd is bad, the first one.
i will try with a new iso image file.

Comment 5 Nicolas Proton 2002-06-13 10:01:58 UTC
I got a new iso image file and burnt the cd with low speed , and now it works 
properly.

Thanks a lot.
Nico
