There's one near Chatswood, from > memory, and also one at Brookvale.Thanks. I think I know which one you are talking about - there is one on Pacific Highway and another one in the industrial area behind the RNS.
Yup, that's the area I was thinking of. I didn't know about the one behind RNS, but there's definitely one on the Pacific Highway, near the old ABC studios at Gore Hill.
Any personal experience on things to look for or is it a simple case of "create Data DVD" and "burn ISO" in K3B?
You have to make sure the software specifically supports dual layer burning - I'm not sure what version of cdrecord/dvdrecord (or whatever the relevant utilities are for Linux these days)[1], but you need to be extremely careful to check, or all you get is a coaster - and at $3 a disk, that's getting expensive. But apart from that, provided the utilities support dual layer burning, it should just be "Create data DVD", and fill it to capacity. DaZZa [1] I don't actually have a DVD burner in my Linux box - cd burner only - so I'm not 100% sure if the same utilities apply for DVD writers as for CD writers. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
