[SOLVED] ISO is Broken - Disk Error 04, AX = 427E

I'd love to give Arch a try but the ISO image (archlinux-2013.01-dual.iso) is borked. I have downloaded from 3 separate mirrors and burned on both ImgBurn (Windows) and K3b (Fedora). The MD5 matches correctly and all my other LiveCDs all boot fine on the same drive.

ISOLINUX 6.02 ETCDisolinux: Disk error 04, AX = 427E, drive FE

ummm why are you using such an old iso (from 2011) anyway ??

This is the current release : Current Release: 2013.11.01

Is usb booting an option on your machine ? You might want to try that instead of burning CDs

I think this has to be a typo.  In 2011, we didn't have the dual Arch isos, nor was syslinux anywhere close to v6.

@OP, it has been a long time since I have tried to use an optical for much of anything.  But there has been some talk about syslinux problems with isos.  A fix has just been submitted to the mailing list, so this fix will make it to next month's iso.

I ended flashing a SanDisk USB disk using dd and got it installed ok. Optical drive works fine with every other CD and I tried several burns on several computers and got the same error message so I have no idea what was up with the ISO.
