[Bug 556595] [NEW] Burned iso image corrupted

[f3a97]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: brasero

Hi,

I wanted to try the new ubuntu lucid beta 1. I went out a bought a CD-
RW. I burned the ubuntu iso on it with brasero on my Karmic PC, and
checked the md5sum. It failed:

ste at b-laptop:~$ md5sum /dev/cdrom 
md5sum: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error

First of all I checked the downloaded ISO, but it was ok. So I tried
another PC (always equipped with ubuntu 9.10), and got the same exact
results.

At this point, the culprit is the new CD-RW disk. I went out and bought
another and different one: TDK the former, Verbatim the latter.

I repeated the above steps, and got the same results! Incredible.

So I tried some other burning programs. First of all, I did a complete
CD-RW blank with cdrecord. Then, I tried again to burn the image from
command line. From that run, I've actually seen the problem:

ste at b-laptop:~$ sudo cdrecord -v speed=2 Downloads/ubuntu-10.04-beta1-desktop-i386.iso

wodim: Cannot fixate disk.

As you can see, actually the burn process was not completing correctly.
Hence, the md5sum was failing.

Too bad, I did not managed to understand why wodim could not fixate the
disk.

As a last resort, I tried burning with k3b. And, guess what? It
succeeded!

ste at b-laptop:~$ md5sum /dev/cdrom 
7ddbfbcfcc562bae2e160695ec820e39  /dev/cdrom


I think we have a problem with cdrecord and brasero!

I'm going to attach some logs, please feel free to ask if more info is
needed!

Thanks
