Re: Ubuntu Live CD with Ofbiz

Daniel Kunkel
On a linux machine, run md5sum <filename> to compute the md5 checksum
and compare with the value in the md5sum.txt file. On windows, you'll
need to find a utility to compute the value. A site with some programs
is:

http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/md5sums/ 

Good luck.

Many thanks Daniel. You pc-tools tip saved a lot of time. Couldn't find
any probs. so back to square one. Will probably wait until the next
release and try again.

Your problem sounds like you just "copied" the .iso file to the disk rather than
burned it's image in place. When you "explore" your burned CD from WindowsXP,
does it have a normal filesystem that you can explore and drill down into, or is
it a single file?

The md5 check just confimed that your ISO was downloaded fine. It does not
confirm that you are burning the image correctly.

Walter,

You are right.
In my first attempt I also copied this burned image file to the disk.
Then I used the option to burn image from my CD burning software and it
worked fine for me.

Thanks walter for your Tip.

In reply to this post by Walter Vaughan
Walter,

I burned with ISO Recorder, a shell extension for Win XP  
http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

I've been comparing md5 sums for individual files against a list
contained in a text file in the root of the CD.

An md5 for the iso would be very much quicker, but so far I've not
managed to find one.

Good thought anyway. Much obliged :)

Ian

Hey Anil,

Live CD worked for me.
It is very good combination of Ubuntu and Ofbiz for the community member in a very small media :-)

Thanks a lot for it.
