BTW burning CD's is no problem at all...

Have you looked at the date of the information supplied by those web
sites?  As far as I know, the functions of growisofs and cdrecord have
been merged into a package "cdrtools", by everyone's favorite author
Joerg Schilling.

Schilling-haters have produced another set of software for cd/dvd
creation, instantaneously I can't find it.

Possibly related:  what is the group of the CD/DVD writer?  Most
likely "disk".  Do you rbw or lbarnes belong to group disk?


I know this is going to bring down an avalanche of calumny on my ignorant
head, but I usually make my cdrom device 777. 9 times out of 10 it's R/O,
and the tenth time, what am I risking, that someone will own a user
account on the box just in time to ruin a $.35 blank? BFD.

If you want a copy of KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso I have one
or two, and could make more.  Of course this does not solve the
problem of burning your own.


No, but it could debug whether it's a HW problem.

I could go for one of those. Also (separate post) FC7 i386.


Thanks Carl and Gus...
As it turns out I managed to get a (seemingly) good download twice but a bad checksum and the 3rd time I got a clean download/checksum. Lan maybe it is a simple as this for you?

In the course of looking up the higher issues I ran across this, which I'm not familiar:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier_(packet_writing)

What, if any, use are any of you making of this capability?
