    Hey guys, I am trying to burn an Ubuntu ISO onto a DVD as a Live CD for my PS3 and I am having no luck. No matter what program I try (Alcohol,IMGBurn,UltraISO,ISObuster), it always gives me an error after the buffer. I know it is not the ISO because I have tried many other ISOs with no luck, any ideas? I have tried burning at slower speeds with no luck as well.

    Thanks!

    What exactly does the error say?

    Have you ruled out the burner or the media you are using?

    I was having a similar problem, except that in my case the burn appeared to go fine but when I booted the disc it didn't work right. One after another after another. Turns out I had a bad pack of discs. I used a disc from a different package and it worked fine. So... that's a possibility to consider.

    Thanks Swarmer, I bought a pack of Circuit City Brand DVD's...200 for 10 dollars, I knew it was too good to be true! I just found an old pack of TDK's and they are burning great! Thanks again!
