[kwlug-disc] CD burning problem

[R. Brent Clements]

If the file fails the md5sum check then don't use it.  If the check
fails to complete that is a completely different issue.  can you check
it using the command line tool directly?  or reboot the system with
another cd based distro and use its md5sum program to test it?
