How to burn a CD, the Linux distribution downloaded from the Internet
Guidelines for the management of the ISO image of Linux distribution
What is ISO? An ISO is an image file, ie a single file. To get an accurate idea of \u200b\u200bwhat a. Iso file, say for example the case where we make a copy of a CD containing any data or files, in which the copier program performs what is called a copy mirror (exact) of the CD.
These programs (Nero - Easy CD Creator - Clone CD - Deep Burner - CD X Roast - K3B - etc) saved in a temporary directory the exact image of this CD preserving the order of folders and files from the first to the last bit.
These programs (Nero - Easy CD Creator - Clone CD - Deep Burner - CD X Roast - K3B - etc) saved in a temporary directory the exact image of this CD preserving the order of folders and files from the first to the last bit.
This creates a single and single file that contains all the information in the CD, and keeps intact all internal relations between files and directories, which are preserved so until that is done burning a CD like the original.
In the case of Linux distributions downloaded via the Internet, which is low exactamenteeso, ISO image, which is a "mirroring" the original CD, the authors created distribution.

ISO files are very useful when handling CDs executables, or that contain installable and require a large number of relationships between libraries, archives, text, images and icons. ISO
Are there several? Yes, There are several types according to the program that was used to generate the image, for example, Nero Burning ROM creates an image. nrg although not the most used format.
The most widespread is the. Iso followed. Cue format. Iso is not a problem, to the point that is taken almost as a standard.
format. Cue deserves some clarification, as it is usually accompanied by another file of the same name but with the extension.
bin in the file. Cue is a copy of the CD, which is ultimately what we must give importance. While the file. Bin is the one that will allow us, with a program to emulate the CD to Hard Disk (Hard Disk).
These 2 files are usually packaged inside a chained and compressed file (type. Rar). [Note: in this case just unpack the file. El.cue for rar and. Bin] ***** Do not unpack the ISO image! ****
importa.Los size if modern Linux usually have up to 4 installation CD and each is completely occupied. Because the ISO image of each of the CDs from a Linux distribution downloaded from the Internet is very large, you should take some precautions, such as:
Download ISO images or a Linux site security , as being the original site or help deforestation. Do not use operators discharge, to avoid splitting. ISO download each individually, and not 3 or 4 pictures down simultaneously. Download the ISO from locations near our location. Download completely, and a single drop. Doing it be possible with a high speed connection. If for some reason your download is interrupted, re-download it from scratch. Managing the ISO.Ya I have the ISO, but. . . Is it ok?, Will there be down whole, how to know?
Suppose we go down the first time an image. Iso of Linux distribution, we use Windows Operating System and Nero Burning ROM as the program recording (burning) CDs.
Typically, the download site, there is a file that accompanies the. Iso of the same name, but with the extension. Md5, this is a string (liner) of verification, like a digital signature.
Some distributions like Fedora Core use a similar procedure, but the extent delstring is given by the algorithm sha1sum.
Any failure or difference in any of the values \u200b\u200bof letters or numbers Quesea insignificant, will result in a different string, which indicates that the ISO image is not in good condition and does not work, so it has to exclude the image file and proceed to re-download the ISO. Verifying

The software MD5summer "comes in a zipped (. Zip or . rar), so unzip it, and click on the executable, thus opening the little screen of the program.
Click on the "Create Sums" and go to the folder where the file. Iso to verify.
select the image file and click the Add button. After attaching the file we will click the OK button to begin the process of creation.
After the process we see a window with the result and the ability to save the file, store it in the same folder where the image and. Md5 you downloaded.

Once the check, now if we just burn the CD and record our image. While it seems redundant
verification, we must bear in mind that any problem while downloading from the Internet or for CD burning can cause data loss and subsequent problems in the process of installing the Linux distribution.
***** NO ISO decompress the image!
***** THIS IS THE MOST COMMON CAUSE AND FOR THE INSTALLATION IS Not done.
DO NOT create a folder on our hard drive, or decompressing in it the image. ISO, AND RECORDING FROM THERE TO A BLANK CD, BECAUSE THESE SUCCESSIVE COPIED TO ONE AND THE OTHER HAND, IS ABSOLUTELY LOSE ALL THAT HAD THE RELATIONS Original Files.
A record my love!
Recording from Windows
Open the CD burning program, Nero Burning Rom or any other, let Nero Burning ROM option. Then, position the cursor on "Copy and Backup." And in the popup menu, click on "Save Image to Disk"
In the window that opens, find the image. Iso to burn them to CD. (Defaults appear in [File Types]. Nrg -. Iso -. Cue). (If not the image file. Iso, click File Types and select iso, which solve this problem.)
Then we click on record as we normally do to burn a CD. It is advisable not to burn the CD at excessive speed, failure to continue to avoid. 32x speed would be fine.
After several minutes, the recording will be over
Recording from LINUX
The following step by step guide, is developed using the K3B program, which is commonly included in Linux distributions.
(1) Open the program K3B.
(2) Click the Tools menu.
(3) Select the media environment in which to record the ISO image. Position the cursor on "CD" or "DVD" as appropriate.
(4) Then click on "Burn CD Image ..." or "Burn DVD Image ...", as appropriate.
(5) However, a window titled "Burn CD Image - K3B", in case you want to burn the image on a CD. If you want to record the image of Linux distribution on DVD, the window is titled "Burn Image to DVD iso9660"
(6) Click on the icon that looks like a folder beside the rectangle titled "Image to Burn." Then you must locate the directory where the ISO image is recorded.
(7) When you locate the ISO image, you should report them and then give click the OK button.
(8) At this point, K3B, starts to check the "MD5", also known as "CheckSum", when finished, you should compare it with that is on the website from which you downloaded the image . If the two match, then the image was properly descargaday can now safely continue the recording process. If both checksums differ, dale click the Cancel button, then the image is corrupt and will invest time and resources on something that definitely will not work.
(10) When the recording expires, give the button click "Close."
Repeat the above steps for each ISO image you need to record. Now the CD / DVD will be ready to install Linux. You just need to leave it in the optical drive "startup" and restart the computer. If you have multiple CD's or DVD's of a Linux distribution, installation begins with the CD / DVD # 1.
(If you do not have broadband or to avoid headaches during discharge, and treatment for an ISO image, it is wise to purchase the Linux distribution CD of excellent quality and presentation, and checked and verified, on the Sites Sales of CDs deDistribuciones Linux.)
