MDK9.1 CD1 - no good burn yet

[mike808@users.sourceforge.net]

The MDK 9.1 CD1 is 682164224 bytes (i.e. 333088 2K blocks)
and has an MD5 checksum of 6f1581974e12420fef87868ed6caa31f.

I've burned it at several speeds with some "Precision" brand (BestBuy)
CDRs that claim to be 40x speed and to hold 700MB.

When I've burned it at 24x, 12x, 8x, and 4x, I get 333088 blocks written
reported by KonCD (with Burn-Proof enabled).

But, when I read back the CD and calculate the md5sum, I don't get back
the md5sum of the ISO.

Has anyone else been able to write a verified CD1 for the new MDK 9.1?

If the last 24 blocks (48K) are junk, why did they make the ISO that big
to begin with?
