[Leaplist] GParted-live

[William H. Ferguson]

I downloaded G-Parted live today from:
  http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.phpI
It is version  gparted-live-0.3.6-7.iso   Architecture i386   Type  iso

Once on my desktop I used K3b to burn it to a CD. I've used K3b a number 
of times but it behaved a bit differently today.

I was confused when a screen appeared when I pressed "Burn" which said 
that gparted was an iso image and was I sure I wanted to proceed with 
the burn? Isaid "yes" believing that the form of the Downloaded file was 
already an iso 9660 image like I wanted. But now I'm wondering if what I 
did was just make a standard copy of the Downloaded program since on my 
Desktop the CD disk icon is labeled as "gparted-live-0.3.6-7.iso"

I'm more used to the Burn screen requiring me to Burn as a "CD iso 
Image" rather than the
Screen cautioning me that the gparted program is already a live CD.

Anyway I checked the option of having K3b check the md5sum.

The Burn went rapidly requiring only 46 seconds.
But instead of seeing "Successfully written," the burn Screen reported 
an error.
The Screen read:   Error: "No Tracks found to Verify."

I checked the Debugging Output and it showed that all 84 tracks had been 
written one at a time.
The total size of the output was 84 MB.

I took the burned "live CD" to my New Computer and booted that machine. 
A nice CD Icon
disk appeared on the screen of this new, second, computer and its label 
is as stated above.

But when I opened it I got only the assorted files which the Disk 
contains----no opening screen showing the partitioning of the Hard Drive 
on the New Computer appeared.

Where did I go wrong?

I could send screen shots which I made after the burn but haven't 
learned whether it's OK to send screen shot attachments to Leaplist.

Thanks everyone who wrote with guidance for me.

*Jim, ** Patrick,  Aaron,  Tom,  Jesse,  Phil, and  John---thank you.*

I keep hearing about "bootable Live CD's" which contain gparted.

How do I make a bootable live cd?

Many thanks,
