ISO not burning

**Cool Surfer** · 09-01-2005

Downloaded Ubuntu, iso, but cant burn it.
Nero says there are some empty files in the iso.
Tried winiso and ultra iso, tried making an image in
.nrg format also. But to no avail.

Any ideas pl.

Sounds like maybe a bad download. Did you remember to run the checksum test before trying to burn the images?

Also, make sure you are trying to burn the image to disk, not just copy it to disk.

Let us know...

Ya , but how to do the checksum thingy. ?

Have burnt a lot of Mandrake and boot cd's and image files etc..... dont think theres problem at that end.

Even tried uncompressing the iso and then recompiling. The total time
for download was ~ 24hrs

Doing it all over again

The checksum test is easy and fast. Here's a HowTo posted by one of our other members:

If you're having problems with Nero give CDBurnerXP Pro a try. It's free as well.

I could manage to born the cd finally, but its not bootable.

Is there a way to make it bootable ?

I have the live cd also. If I copy some particular files/'s from the live cd
onto this one, will it work ?

Or rather is it possible to make one iso of live n installable cd ?
