If i am not mistaken, you say you have a problem but you also say i can use the disks i make, now i ask is that a problem.?? Anyway, i am sure that what you say happens, so i being a great beliver in linux documentation would suggest the following URL's to you. http://www.xcdroast.org/faq/ http://www.xcdroast.org/manual/ I have never to be honest duplicated a cd as i always keep my iso's that i have dowloaded, i will on the otherhand this weekend duplicate a cdrom. To be clear on your so called problem, just how do you duplicate.? Sounds silly to ask does it not, BUT, its not if you consider... 1) One may have 2 cdroms, one for reading and the other for writing, (You did not say). 2) Are you duplicating on the fly or do you create a file then burn the image.?? 3) Only have one cdrom and burn on the fly.?? 4) Whats the hardware, not only cdrom(s) but CPU memory, what other processes are running, all those things are explained in the above URL's, so tell us/ me... Things like that tell in answering such a question, if i am to try what you are doing then i and possably Ray need to know HOW you do it. If as you say everything is fine and dandy but all i see wrong is some message in a the log from a xcd session, then possably a mail to the address(s) mentioned in the above URL's may well give you a better responce than we can give you here. I hope that is clear. Let me/us know, i will see what happens here if the need arise. > > -rei -- If the Linux community is a bunch of theives because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
