I have read through what I thought was the pertinent information on the archives and typed the following command to burn a simple pdf file (an old email from the KDE print system, which is readable from the hard drive) to the CDRW drive on my laptop: # burncd -f /dev/acd0c -s max data /home/user/email-test.pdf fixate The cdrw drive works for a few seconds, I get some output from burncd that indicates everything is OK and I eject the CDR, noting the burned tracks that are visible with the right reflection of light. However, I get the following error when I try to execute the following two commands: # mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom or # mount /cdrom Output: cd9660: /dev/acd0c: Invalid argument Is there a different option I should give burncd or mount? Please let me know. Also, from 4.9, are there any other major issues I should know about burning a DVD? 5.x? TIA Eric Crist AdTech Integrated Systems, Inc
