hi Monil,
It seems that your first iso disk download has scrwd up somewhere ... the md5 hash will be exact to the one listed on the site frm where u downloaded.. if not then there is some problem ... dont burn that iso ..not worth wasting the CD...
any ways u can either transfer that file to a windoze machine n get it burnt thru EasyCD or similar software .... or u got to u use scsi emulation (in case of IDE Writer, i presume that u have a IDE CD Writer)
u need to edit your lilo.conf as
append="hdx=ide-scsi" where hda = primary master hdb = primary slave hdc = secondary master hdd = secondary slave so accordingly modify the line n run lilo after that follow procedure provided on this page..
http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/mkrapp-cdwriting-7.0.html
after referring to above doc,
just run cdrecord -scanbus and see the device number ....
finally to burn the CD...
cdrecord dev=x,x,x -v -eject speed=n filename.iso
x,x,x = the number which u get to see ur Writer after issuing cdrecord -scanbus n = speed 1x,2x,4x (i suggest use 2x ...this writing speed is supported on almost all CD-ROM Drives)
hope that solves the problem, Best Regards, -Mitul Limbani (mitul 2 mitul.com)

Hi,
I managed to download Redhat 7.3 valhalla-i386-disc1.iso file. The remaining 2 files valhalla-i386-disc2.iso , valhalla-i386-disc3.iso would also be downloaded by me in a few days .
Now that i have the ist .iso file , i ran md5sum valhalla-i386-disc1.iso on the linux prompt.
[root@localhost root]# md5sum valhalla-i386-disc1.iso d874b1b23b2ad937f4a5a3df44ad501d valhalla-i386-disc1.iso
