No, so long as you ISO image is good, the burning software just does a bit
for bit copy from ISO to CD (including blank space).
If you're running linux on a machine (somewhere I think in this thread it
was stated the taosting machine was a linux x86 box, no?) you can
preemptively mount the cd to check it with:
mount -o loop -t iso9660 image.iso /path/to/mount/point
Also check the md5 keys of the iso's to what you have via:
md5sum image.iso
(If you don't have md5sums and they're not on ftp.yellowdoglinux.com, LMK
and I can generate sums for ponoma*.iso from mine)
