Help with GParted LIVE cd boot

Did you burn the cd as ISO image? (not just data cd).
Did you check the md5sum of the downloaded file?

(Moved to the Live Media section)

Hello antani,

"md5sum" is a hash total of your downloaded ISO file, which confirms ( or not ), that your download was correct. You find its string in the "Release Notes" of the downloaded file and need a program, which processes your download the same way as it was done with the source file. If strings match, you can be sure, that you got the whole thing; if not, you should repeat the download. For "Live 4.5.2" ISO, you find it here. Generally, you find it in column "Notes/Monitor" (clipboard sign) in the same line as the download on the Sourceforge.net site. Most Linux distros contain a md5-generator. For Windows, you might have to search the web ("md5.exe download").

Hello antani,

well, I obviously used another access, but on your download site there is also a clipboard icon (with tooltip "View Notes"), which contains the release notes (and the md5sum). Of course it's not contained within the ISO file, which would be useless. To have a look at the ISO content, you can easily mount it with Linux ( mkdir /mnt/iso ; mount -o loop /myfile.iso /mnt/iso ), or you use a free packer program like "IZArc2Go" under Windows for that purpose.

Exactly. The md5sum for the ISO file is
7e34ccb9b8e259db95f051aa17630fda

As cmdr mentions above, you have to serch in the web using google, for "md5.exe download". There are several small programs that give the md5sum. Just one I found is

The md5sums are not equal, ergo your download is corrupt.
You have to download the ISO file again and check its md5sum. If it's ok (=equal), you got it.
