Re: Burning DVDs
Hi albi, Mark, Robert and Paul, I followed albi's advice and rebuilt the kernel with a scsi emulator. Works perfect. Thanks for your help, guys.

Re: Burning DVDs
Hi all, My DVD drive read and mounts CDs and DVDs properly, but K3B refuses to burn : K3B did not find a suitable writer. You will only be able to create an image. Gut feeling is that there probably is something wrong in the drive's read/write permission. I checked the /etc/fstab file for read/write status and I got the following : # Device Mountpoint FStype Options DumpPass# /dev/ad0s3bnoneswapsw 0 0 /dev/ad0s3a/ ufs rw 1 1 /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 This was the default set up that I haven't altered (yet...). Is there a reason why the DVD drive would be set in read only mode, as a default ? Should I just launch vi and edit the line from ro,noauto to rw,noauto or is there another way ? Generally burners do not work through a mount on a drive. They do their work directly to the device. They might not even work on a drive until it is unmounted. I haven't tried that claim to verify it though. If that is true, you would have to unmount the device before running the burner. So, there is no reason to mount a CD/DVD as writable because, from the point of view of a mounted device, it is read only. jerry Thanks, Edward ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks, Edward Hi there. Try a make showinfo in /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b There are some special steps required to set your burner up. Hope that helps. -Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Burning DVDs
Hi Edward I found this document very useful recently for burning CD's and DVD's. It's CLI only (no GUI's), but is quite straight forward when you get the hang of it: http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/Unix/FreeBSD-Burning.php Paul Robert Marella writes: On Fri, 14 Oct 2005 23:50:34 +0200 edward [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, My DVD drive read and mounts CDs and DVDs properly, but K3B refuses to burn : K3B did not find a suitable writer.
