It's been so long since I played with any new disks that I don't recall. Don't remember if you said you referenced this, or not.

Best place is to start here: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html Make sure that you have all of the CD writing packages installed. Typically, it's mkisofs and cdrecord.

It's a GUI utility for making cd's. -- Shawn The difficult we do today; the impossible take a little longer. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
