Public bug reported: Description: Checksum message is different with the source by using the command "genisoimage -o image.iso /media/mount_point" (read from source) and "growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom=image.iso" (write to disc)
Steps to replicate: Create iso image using the command "genisoimage -o image.iso /media/mount_point": 1. Insert a data CD in to the optical disk drive. 2. Open the terminal and type the command "md5sum /dev/cdrom" and record the checksum message. 3. Create an iso image from the data CD using the command "genisoimage -o image.iso /media/mount_point" (Browse to the folder /media, and check the actual name for the mount_point such as /cdrom0, /cdrom1, etc.) 4. As the iso image has created, type the command "md5sum image.iso" and compare the checksum message of the iso image with the source. (i.e. - Checksum message is different.) Create a disc using the command "growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom=image.iso": 5. Insert a writable DVD to the optical disk drive. 6. Type the command "growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom=image.iso" to copy the image to disc. 7. As the copying process is completed, type the command "md5sum /dev/cdrom" under the terminal and compare the checksum of the disc with the image. (i.e. - Checksum message is different.) Expected result: Checksum message of image and disc created should all be the same.
