A preety dumb question: if you bzip2 a .iso file and bunzips it again,
will it be corrupted? Yesterday my fedora cd#3 got bad (of course I've
discovered it when it was its time to install already, so the old rh8
was gone), and I bzip2'ed a iso from my home computer, and downloaded
it.. The .bz2 file went to 16 megabytes(!), and my cd3 was gone.
I ignored it, rebooted and almost everything was fine. Just some
duplicated packages, some old rpms which was quickly updated, and I did
a 3-cd install with only 2 :-P
