Burning CD throws errors and resulting CD won't boot; tried 2 downloads to ensure integrity
Hi all: Musix looks like just what I'm after, but I don't seem to be able to even get into the splash screen. I have gone through the following routine twice: 1. I download the latest ISO on my Win2k box (the only one with a broadband connection) 2. The download aborts 3. I start the download again 4. The download succeeds 5. I start Nero Express to burn the image to disk 6. Nero returns a block size error and asks me if I want to ignore or try to correct it OK, the first time I clicked ignore and burned a CD that seemed to be fine but wouldn't boot on either of my two boxes with varying hardware. The second time, I clicked "correct" and tried various settings which did nothing. Not wanting to waste another CD on a coaster, I gave up. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Thanks, Ken Quad

Using Bit Torrent? You must use BitTorrent for now: http://www.musix.org.ar/en/download.html

Dont you have another system running k3b?

You could use a re-writable CD-ROM. Also, the integrity must be checked using md5sum, and it must give you this number: md5: 0edcf4e6b5d013b3d999fb5203a09888
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Hey:
Unfortunately I don't have a system with K3B, but I'm going to re-try this using BitTorrent and the Win version of md5sum. What open-source BitTorrent client do you recommend?
I dont know, I dont use windows, but: use any of them....

If the integrity checks out, have you tried mounting the iso with a tool like daemon tools (free) on your win2000 machine? If you can see the files, maybe try doing a cd copy within Nero? good luck
