I mentioned earlier that balena-etcher keeps telling me that a burn has
failed, when all that is really wrong is that it couldn't verify the
checksum.

This evening, I downloaded an ISO that had a checksum test included. It
gave a failure message the same way, but the burn looked successful.
The supplied integrity check said "no problems" and I was able to open
the ISO as a LiveCD. I don't know what is wrong, but it seems that I
should give these cases a go anyway.
