Compare the CD-RW content with the downloaded ISO image.
The only non-trivial aspect is to curb the comparison to the
size of the ISO image file.
On Linux i would do:

  cdrom=/dev/cdrom

  imagefile=...path.to.ISO.image.file...
  size=$(expr $(ls -l "$imagefile" | awk '{print $5}') / 2048)

  dd if="$cdrom" bs=2048 count=$size | diff - "$imagefile"

If possible use the same drive as with the failed boot attempts.

Does it expect to find a LIF filesystem image in the ISO ?

In the web i find this error message with failed hard disks
and a try to boot an Ubuntu amd64 ISO on PA-RISC.


Have a nice day :)
