procedure is to burn an *image*. not the file. ;)
I get a mountable DVD with the iso I just burned inside it!

because you are burning file, not image.
even a blank dvd is mountable.
either a blank dvd or a dvd with an image file, or an image burned to
a dvd are mountable.
only a *burned image* is bootable.
I tried booting off of SL61-DVD1. It would not boot. So, I could not
do the self check.
if it is *iso file*, it will not boot.
It was from the host.

best way.
k3b crashes a lot when trying to do a verify. So I have always
just used the md5sum above.

if k3b is crashing a lot, i would suggest checking logs and contacting
k3b support. k3b crashing a lot is not normal.
i am currently running sl5.5 and have great results with k3b. no crashes
after burning over 20 cd's and dvd's. all have passed k3b's checking after
burning.
Noticed that as well. I just buy a big pail of DVD+R's and don't
mess with the RW anymore. The just R's write a lot faster too.
only failures has been with r/w that have been rewritten over about 20 times.
dropping write speed 1 level produces a good burn.
Any idea what is wrong with my growisofs syntax?
