k6.2 cd says there are 2045 errors

[sbininit]

When I burned the k6.2 cd with image burn it says there are 2045 errors on the disk. I must not have a good 6.2.iso

The md5sum checks out fine and it will boot with qemu from within knoppix 5.3.1...

That the md5 checks out fine confirms my point, you do not have a bad iso file, you have some other problem. I have no idea what booting from within Knoppix 5.3.1 means. Normally a bad or high speed burn causes other problems, such as the popular "cannot find Knoppix file system" error. I'm at a loss to know just what your problem actually is, but thank you for confirming that it is not a bad iso file. My main suspects are media, the drive, or a high speed burn.

I finally got it to boot with grub2 by this menuentry

menuentry "Knoppix 6.2.0 from sdb9 ISO" {
set root=(hd1,9 )
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set b9b2a745-e246-4d84-bfe5-6065fbd734b8
linux /boot/k620/linux root=UUID=b9b2a745-e246-4d84-bfe5-6065fbd734b8 bootfrom=/dev/sdb9/boot/k620/*.iso lang=us ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init apm=power-off dma screen=1024x768 noprompt noeject nomce vga=791 quiet hostname=auto-clock loglevel=0 lsdibata.atapi_enabled=1 SELINUX_INIT=NO nmi_watchdog=0
initrd /boot/k620/minirt_620e.gz
}

Its almost identical to the entry I use for 5.3.1. except I use /bootfromhd/KNOPPIX on it as I never got the .iso to boot

I like 6.2 alright, its beautiful. I'd like to speed up that crumbling page when you x out of a file a bit so it doesnt' get in the way. I never got the web to work. I could ping google fine but no browsing. It had to be something I guess.

I want to learn to open vmlinuz and minirt.gz files in the near future and do other things besides just multi-booting.
