Not a problem if the box has enough resources.  XCDroast doesn't require that you save 
the settings, does it?  So long as you have the resources, aren't you able to 
Burn-On-The-Fly?  That would alleviate the need for large RW HD space for an image.  
If you HAVE to create an image, just remount the partition Read/Write ( # mount -o 
remount,rw /mnt/hda2 )

I don't use XCDRoast any more, loving KreateCD and intrigued by K3b.

I haven't used XCDRoast for a lllnnngg time, well over a year. But I'll 
vouch for k3b. Was using cdbakeoven heavily until it started weirding out on 
me after an update from CVS. Started using k3b and it's been great, though I 
still prefer the feel of cdbo. Haven't tried KreateCD, but from what I've 
read, it wasn't as far along in the development cycle as k3b, or cdbakeoven. 
Perhaps I'll compile it and play ;-)

All three are available from KDE-CVS, in kdeextragear-1

Tim

Knoppix 3.1 has XCDroast .98alpha10. It does indeed have a
master and burn on the fly option.
Setup insists on a path for the image nonetheless. I selected
Knoppix's /tmp just to satisfy it.
XCDRoast then ran, and copied my files, but they are just files
- the directory structure is gone.
Although XCDRoast worked in this test, after a fashion, I'll stick with
Gcombust for the rescue scenario
that prompted this project in the first place.

I use arson. Simple. Clean. Something for the masses. Something our users
can handle without a hassle.

What I would really like is a system that manages multi-cd store. There is
kbackup (I think it is called) but the format can only be read by kbackup.
We have made our own that lets the backup file be accessed direct from the
CD without additional software (e.g., from Windows). (Our backup
requirements are other than expected.) But it would be nice to find
something that is more flexible than our in-house stuff. Any pointers?

Burning CD's with Knoppix

2003-03-23 Thread Leon A. Goldstein


Could someone provide me a how-to for burning a CD with Knoppix?
A friend just had his Windows 98 roll over. If I can't resurrect
it with a dose of Norton,
I want at least to rescue his files.
TIA.

Maybe you should post this question under a different thread name.
But, just guessing:
Do you have valid media?
Is the drive unmounted?

Not really. It's easier to burn a CD, which I just did a few
moments ago.
I found a thread on the Knoppix forum, which is in German, "Brenner"
(burner).
There were numerous complaints about BakeOven, but one report of success
with Gcombust.
I burned a 24 mb directory from my win98 partition on my "lab rat"
- no image directory needed.
Apparently Gcombust will burn data files on the fly. Or does
it store the image in its ramdisk?
There was no image directory shown in the Gcombust preferences.
