Hi Mike,
Thanks again for your further advice.
I have no problem reading CDRW under Linux after recompiling the kernel
which I did several months ago but I CAN'T WRITE CDRW under Linux. For such
a reason I have to keep 2 (two) OS, Linux and M$Win98, using the latter for
writing CDRW with Adapter DirectCD.
The difficult story began when I recently purchase a new CDWriter. It does
not support DirectCD but only running Nero therefore I am compelled to
maintain 3 machines with 3 CDWriters, one on M$Win98 with DirectCD, another
on M$Win98 with Nero and another on Linux with CDRoast. The CDRW created
with DirectCD could not be read on the machine running Nero and vice versa
because of different format.
So I am now looking for a solution with a hope from the list because I have
a stock CDRW having data recorded with DirectCD. What I expect is a
solution for cross reading of CDRW created between DirectCD and Nero
respectively
Thanks
B.R.
Stephen
