Maybe the file is corrupt. Have you tried to burn it onto another blank DVD from a different manufacturer? Maybe your blank DVDs don't work well together with your DVD writer.

[gentoo-user] having problems getting burned cds to work
Hi. I am trying to burn an iso image to a cd (maybe its actually a dvd disk), and it boots without any errors, and I can mount the iso with the loop option, but if I try to mount the cd, it complains about ufs file systems, and if I try to mount with -t iso9660, it just says bad file type or bad superblock and the disk is unusable. Nothing interesting in the logs, it just says the same about ufs and nothing about iso9660. I am using cdrecord from cdrtools-3.01_alpha28 and I am running the unstable version of gentoo. Any assistance would be appreciated. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici cov...@ccs.covici.com
