k3b cannot locate growisofs executable
FreeBSD users: I have yet another question I installed k3b for cd/dvd burning, however whenever I try to burn a DVD, I get the error message: 'unable to find growisofs executable' It's in /usr/local/bin and '/usr/local/bin' is in the paths that k3b searches... I tried pkg_delete dvd+rw-tools, then I did a portinstall sysutils/dvd+rw-tools (from /usr/ports directory) to reinstall it. Just can't make k3b find itall other executables and plugins that it needs are present and have the green check next to them in the 'programs' section of the configuration. I'm using k3b.0.11.12 with kde 3.2.3 When I type in the commandline growisofs --version, I get: rowisofs by [EMAIL PROTECTED], version 5.21 Any pointers, as always are appreciated...

ATAPICAM - cdrecord will not recognize my DVD burner
FreeBSD Enthusiasts, I have been using cdrecord since I built my system. I have an Asus A7N8X delux motherboard, AMD 3200+ cpu, 2G of ram and (2) 15,000 rpm scsi drives. I recently bought a Toshiba DVD+r/-r burner, which I replaced my DVDr/CDRW drive with. The new drive is detected at bootup: acd0: DVDR TSSTcorpCD/DVDW TS-H552B at ata0-master PIO4 However, cdrecord --scanbus no longer can see the drive through scsi emulation. I tried to load the cam module, but it is already loaded. I am using 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9. Any pointers in the right direction are appreciated.

Re: Install errors on old HP machine
Jouke, Does the old pc already have an operating system on it? If not, you could try installing DOS on it and then copying rawrite.exe (I think it's called under 'dostools' folder from cd) to the hard drive and creating the boot discs on the machine that will be using them. Sometimes floppy drives can be aligned very differently and creating them on the machine you'll be using them on makes a bit of a differance. Wow! 66mhzmakes me yearn for my old 486 DX2 66 with 32M of ramthat my friend is a test in patience. But if you want to use it as a firewall and put say two isa nics in it...then go for it.
