I have gone through the customizing howto process and gotten an iso file with no errors. But when i ftp it over to my windows machine to burn it using Nero it get an error that states:

---------------------------------
Foreign image file

The entered block size does not correspond to the image length. The block size may be wrong. Do you want to correct the value or ignore the problem?

Buttons: Correct, Ignore
-----------------------------------

I have followed the directions on the howto's several times through, but each time I still recieve this error.

All I am doing to the Knoppix cd is adding an auto load script that runs when the computer starts. It is called "S99stressBoot" and is placed in "etc/rc5.d/".

Is this a problem with the creation of the KNOPPIX file or with the iso file?

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for anyone's help.
