Hi,

I'm trying to install FC5t3 on another computer, but I can't burn the
ISOs.

I've tried burning from GNOME and using cdrecord, e.g.

cdrecord dev=/dev/hda -eject -v -dao FC-5-Test3-i386-disc1.iso

(I ran this as root as it complained about setpriority when I didn't).

But on the resulting CDs some files can be copied but other's result in
I/O errors. Last time I posted about verifying CDs I was told that this
process was unreliable.

So we have unreliable CD burning and no reliable way to verify them.

Yes, rather irritating. ;)

And I have a half-installed computer.

Does anyone have any tips for successful burning of ISOs? (I'm burning
from an up-to-date FC5 test installation).

I'll get burned at the stake for this answer, but in lieu of additional
conditions being specified which limit the number of available responses
to a specific range....

Use Nero Burning ROM in Windows XP.  It more or less "just works" every
time.

And where do I get this stuff? Anybody giving free Windows XP out there? ;-)

Sorry to hear about your problems. I've had completetly opposite experiences to Mike -- lots of problem when burning on Windows (well, truth is it was some 5 years back I run any Windows on my boxes :) and only when I eventually switched completely to Linux I had 100% reliable burning. The only failures were to due to bad media or myself really loading up the machine with very CPU+HD+network intensive tasks. And that my experience since Mandrake 6 through RH 7.3, RH 9 and FC3 on SCSI Teac 4x recorder and later on Pioneer 105 DVD recorder.

I felt I neede to add my comment to this rather depressing thread. Hope your problems will get fixed, guys!

Try using gnomebaker. Seems to work great.
