Bad DVD or Drive?

Hello Klaus, I have been using Knoppix DVDs from Linux Magazine for some time and have had no problems with versions 6.1 to 6.5. However, I recently tried version 6.7 and it gives the message in Listing 1, so I tried knoppix testcd and it does the same. I concluded that I may have a dud DVD and decided to wait for the next release.

When Knoppix 7.0 came out in Linux Magazine, I tried again, and got the same message. Now, it is highly unlikely that two DVDs are defective in the same spot, so I tried further boot options – nodma, acpi=off, and failsafe – to no avail. I note that versions 6.7 and 7.0 of Knoppix use compression. Is that the problem?
