That said, what authoring software are you intending to use? I've had lots of luck in the past using K3B. Are you going old sk00l and using mkisofs? ;) Tony On Wed, 25 May 2005, Olaf Greve wrote: > Hi, > > Within a few weeks I will be aquiring a new server, and it will most likely > feature a 64-bit AMD processor. > > One of the (hardware-wise) things I need to solve before being able to > actually get it, is which DVD burner (for back-ups, etc.) I can best install > in it. > > From the FreeBSD 5.4 AMD-64 hardware compatibility list, I seem to gather the > following drive may be a good candidate: > Logitec LDR-H443U2 DVD-RAM/-R/+R/-RW/+RW drive > > Does anyone have any experience with this particular combination and/or can > anyone perhaps recommend me some other good alternatives for the AMD-64 > version of FreeBSD 5.4? > > Thanks in advance, and cheers! > Olafo > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
