GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 636658
The brasero md5 checksum plugin does not work well.
Last modified: 2018-09-21 17:11:11 UTC
All the time it states that the burn process was not successful... some of the hash did not verify. I did a manual hash check of all the files and it appeared to be all right.
I confirm. For a more detailed bug report, see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2329 In that case, brasero reports a mismatch in spite of the fact that a "cmp -l xxx.iso /dev/sr0' comparing the raw burned data to the original ISO on the hard drive finds them equal.
The version I'm using is the Mageia 3.0.x version.
This is a fairly serious bug that is still occurring and has been open for going on two years now. Google finds several references to the nature of the problem, something about computing the checksum by reading a multiple of 32 blocks back from the burned disk rather than the exact number written. Is this ever going to be addressed ?
