[opensuse] 10.3 DVD is not booting
Hi I download the openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-i386.iso and burn it with k3b under opensuse 10.2, the k3b did the MD5 sum succesfully but the DVD is not booting. I try it in two machines whle both machines can boot with 10.2 dvd. I also try to burn a new DVD with 10.3 in case that somethink goes wrong with the first one (actualy now i have four copies of it but no one is working). I also try to burn a new copy of 10.2 DVD to check if somethink is wrong with k3b but this one is working. So the problem is with openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-i386.iso. Right now i am in the midle of new download of the file, but it will take a couple of days to finish. Any suggestions are welcome Thank you in advance Charalampos Alexopoulos -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any suggestions are welcome There are two fast possibilities, your bios is not set to boot from that drive prior to booting from the hard disk, or you did not choose to burn the disk as .iso. From k3b's tools menu, choose the Burn DVD Iso image option, for the former put in a known good bootable disk and if it won't boot from it, adjust your bios settings. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I try it in two machines whle both machines can boot with 10.2 dvd. What do you mean by not booting? - Does the BIOS boots the DVD ? do you get the openSUSE 10.3 boot options? - Or select the install option and the boot process does not complete?

I mean that when i start the computer with dvd in the computer boot from hard disk, no boot options. But when i put the dvd with the 10.2 it gives me the boot options.

No one is my case, because the computer can boot with 10.2 dvd and because i wrote the 10.2 dvd with the same procedure.

Then try to burn again, maybe the media was bad. Or, you can do: dd if=/dev/dvd of=myimage.iso. This will try to read the whole media. Then you can make a md5 checksum of myimage.iso and see if it is the same.

A defective read on the DVD. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
