Howto write a debian CD
Hello everybody,
I've got normal cd writing (for data cdroms) working.
However, something is going wrong when I try to burn
debian cd's.
I got 3 of the cd images completely installed (using
jigdo) but I'm not sure about how to burn them on a
cd.
For a normal cd I use:
mkisofs -r -o cd_image [dir]/
cdrecord speed=0 blank=fast dev=0,1,0 -data
cd_image
So I first tried
cdrecord speed=0 blank=fast dev=0,1,0 -data
binary-i386-1.iso
However, this results in errors & weird behavior;
Then I found, I need the following (somewhere on the
debian site, I don't know the exact URL)
nice --18 cdrecord -eject -v speed=0 dev=0,1,0 -data
-pad binary-i386-1.iso
I don't know what this all means - but it isn't
working as it should either - when I try to install
Debian using this cd, I get an error when installing
iptables:
file:/instmnt/pool/main/i/iptaables/iptables_1.2.6a-5_i386.deb
was corrupt
How come a file is corrupt if I use the recommended cd
writing method ??
Thanks for any help,
Joris
