Re: Bad LIF Image Error on Install for C8000 and J6750



Hi,

now that it boots i am only able to comment on some
technical details of the surpassed obstacles.

That's an LG DVD writer. Up to ten years old, given its specs.
Should be fully ok for reading CD and DVD.

Just to keep any misunderstandings from taking roots:

The Debian ISOs are perfectly ok for being directly burned
to optical media. (As first track of the first session, to
be exacting.)

The problem seems to be with user interface of the (Windows ? Mac ?)
burn software. It probably packed up the ISO image as data file
in a file system (UDF, ISO, ..., whatever).
A file in .cdr format is obviously unpacked from that format
and burned to medium.

On Linux i would burn a Debian ISO by:
  
  xorriso -as cdrecord -v blank=as_needed -eject dev=/dev/sr0 debian-7.0-hppa-NETINST-1.iso

regardless of the type of optical medium.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
