Accessing KNOPPIX DVE at /dev/sr0 ... INS mod/ '/cdrom/KNOPPIX/modules/cloop.ko' : Input/Output Error
Can't find KNOPPIX file system, sorry
I've burned two cd's and two dvd's, lowest possible speed ... both have several files that won't open ... says files may be corrupt.
Can't open /cloop.ko ... says its corrupt
The correct cd is being read, but the files are corrupt.
Tried to mb5summary thing, but it doesn't list the iso files, so can't check 'em.
Jzip won't open several files, including /cloop.ko ... jZip says they are corrupt.
Traced it back to the downloads ... any idea where to download a good copy?

What do you mean that you can't check the md5? Every single md5 test program that I've used (and I've tried several) can check an ISO file just fine. The FAQ lists several choices that all work. Perhaps you should post exactly what program that you are trying to check the md5 with and what steps you are taking to get to the point where you think the file can't be checked.
This certainly seems to be the problem. In fact, I would bet money that it is the problem if you ignored the advice to use BitTorrent and instead used the mirrors, which are well know to have corruption issues when downloading to Windows systems. I can assure you that within just a few minutes you can get a program to do the md5 test, run the test, and know for certain if you have bad ISO files or if you are doing something else wrong (although you may have bad md5s and still be doing something else wrong).

Again, awful good chance that the ISO is corrupt, but what are you trying to do with Jzip? You certainly should not be trying to unpack the ISO file. Just check the md5 and, on the slight chance that it turns out to be OK, burn the ISO to a disc as an image.
