trying to** install **it (kde ver) comes up with this"
http://j.imagehost.org/0688/110720100467.jpg
In ubuntu i use nautilus to open a freshly burned oS 11.3.
Error mounting: mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
What is wrong?
(edit: yes yes I know it’s 11.3, move along now)
Hi,
Did you check the md5sum of your ISO?
In addition to checking the md5 sum of the ISO (if it turns out to be correct) also run the Media Check (or whatever it’s called) after booting from the CD/DVD. If it returns an error, or if the md5 checksum is wrong, unfortunately you will have to download openSUSE again … Once something of this sort happened to me as well while installing and re-downloading fixed the problem.
I had to do that when I tried 11.3 RC 2, and I kept getting errors. When I ran the “Check Disk” option it came back saying it wasn’t good, so I did another download which did work.
Disk is fine, it checks out fine and I burned it more than once, on slowest speed. It happened to me on the RC as well.
I have an Nvidia 8400 (notebook) card
It doesn’t play well with Nouvou driver so I did ‘nomodeset’ install (as I have to do with Ubuntu as well since Lucid, for example). But this time it doesn’t change anything, and I am clueless :-\
I can tell, that the disk is NOT OK. If it would be, Nautilus in Ubuntu would recognize it. Or…your drive is borked.
Would it really hurt to try and re-download it “just in case”?
Also what kind of media are you using? I know I tried with two different CD-RWs which worked with other versions of openSUSE and my drives just would not get past 80% in the check media part, even though the md5sum was correct after burning in K3b. I then had to use a regular CD-R which works flawlessly.
Take Care,
Ian

It is not recognizing it as an ISO CD, it thinks perhaps it is another
type of filesystem. The command “file -s /dev/sr0” would say.
I think that either the media did not burn right, or your reading unit
has read problems. I would check the checksum of the media: go to the
download link, and download the checksum (not the image, there is no
need to redownload the whole thing - yet). Then run the checksum method
as explained in the download help page in the wiki, on the CD/DVD:
md5sum -b /dev/sr0
