How to burn Klikit to a disk

Page history last edited by Ben 15 years, 7 months ago

Checking files after download

Using a check sum program in Windows® or Linux®, you can check that the ISO, ZIP, and PDF files downloaded correctly.

This step is not required, but is highly recommended. If you have a check sum program already, you can use it.

For Windows you can download and use the free winMd5Sum application depicted below.

 

To check files using Windows

This procedure may not work with Windows 98.

  1. Download winMd5Sum (0.2 MB).
  2. Install it by double-clicking the .exe file (0.3 MB).
  3. Launch it by clicking Start > All Programs > winMd5Sum > winMd5Sum.
  4. Click the ... button beside the File Name box.
  5. Browse to the Klikit .iso file to check, and open it. Wait while information is loaded into the window.
  6. Copy and paste the md5sum posted on the Klikit download page into the Compare box.
  7. Click the Compare button. A download was successful if the check sums match. If the check sums differ, download the file again.

 

     

To check files using Linux

         1.    Open a console window.  Type md5sum filename, where filename is the name

                of the file to check. Remember, file names are case-sensitive in Linux.

         2.    Press Enter and wait for the check sum to be generated.

         3.    Compare the check sum with the md5sum for the Klikit version you have downloaded,

                which is posted on the download page.  A download was successful if the check sums match.

                If the check sums differ, download the file again.

     

     Note:  If you are burning the ISO to a disk using k3b in Linux, you can skip this step, as

     k3b will generate the md5sum automatically.  Simply compare it to the one posted

     on the Klikit download page, and if they match, proceed to the next step, burning the disk.

     

    Important:  To avoid introducing errors into your burned disk,

    it is recommended that you close all other running programs,

    and do not use your computer for any other purpose while

    burning disks.

     

     

To burn the disk using Windows

  1. Download and install the free DeepBurner program from:  http://www.deepburner.com/?r=download
  2. Double-click the DeepBurner icon on your Windows desktop, to launch the program.

 

 

       3.  In the Select project type: box, select Burn .ISO imageClick the Next button.

 

 

    4.  The Burn ISO window will open.  You will have to enlarge the window so that the Image file field is visible,

          and click the Browse button (...) to browse to the location where you saved your downloaded Klikit .iso. 

          Set the Write speed selector to the lowest speed available for your drive,

         and click the Burn ISO button to burn the disk.

 

 

 

    5.  When the disk burn is completed the disk tray will open automatically.  Leaving the Klikit disk in the tray, close the tray and reboot

         your machine.  In a matter of minutes you will be running Klikit Live.  Welcome to Klikit-Linux, indistinguishable from magic!

 

 

 

 

To burn the disk using k3b in Linux

 

  1. Open k3b, Launch > Multimedia > k3b, and select either the Burn CD Image or Burn DVD ISO Image option,
          depending on the size of your ISO file.

 

 

     2.  Click the folder icon at the upper right, and browse to the location where you saved your downloaded ISO file.  Set the speed selector

          to the lowest setting available.

 

 

     3.  Click your ISO file in the list to select it, and click OK to continue

 

 

     4.  The path to your ISO file will be displayed in the Image to Burn field.

 

 

     5.  Use the scroll bar to scroll down until the Md5 Sum is visible in the window.  (It may take a minute for k3b to

          calculate the Md5 Sum).  Compare the Md5 Sum displayed, to the one posted on the download page.  Right-

        click on the md5sum field in k3b, and select Compare from the drop-down menu.  Paste the md5sum from the

          downloads page into the field of the compare window, when it opens, and then click OK.  k3b will then compare

          the two md5sums automatically, and a pop-up window will inform you whether or not they match.  If the two

          match, your ISO file is good, and you can proceed with burning it to disk.  Set the Speed selector to the lowest

          available speed.  Check the box next to Verify written data, and click the Start button to begin.

 

 

     6.  The Burning ISO9660 Image window will open, and the disk burn will start.

 

 

     7.  Once the disk burning is completed, the disk tray will open, then close again, automatically,

          for the verification portion of the operation.

 

 

     8.  Klikit will detect the newly burned disk, and offer to open it in a new window.  Select Do Nothing,

          and click OK to continue.

 

 

     9.  The Verification phase of the operation will begin, and k3b will compare the contents of your burned disk to the

          original ISO file.  If they match, then Written data verified will be displayed in the window.  That's it!  You're done.

          Click the Close button to exit, and prepare to enjoy your new Klikit-Linux disk!    papabearak
