burning woes

[bmike101 at cox.net]

okay.... so I put the download and the md5sum in the same 
directory. 
>  
root at 1[mepis3.4]# md5sum SimplyMEPIS_3.4-3.md5sum -c 
root at 1[mepis3.4]# 
 
Is this correct? 
I then burned the ISO and after the MD5 check it goes 
wa-waaa and a k3b says: 
 
	an error occured while reading from file <iso> 
 
Any ideas how I should get it to burn? The burn speed was 
1x and the burn program used was cdrecord 2.1a19. This is 
on the livecd so I can't upgade it (already tried). Should 
I change the weriting mode? The options are AUTO, DAO, 
TAO, and RAW. I used AUTO.
