greetings all.
first off, thanks to those of you who recomended CD burning programs for me. i'm
playing around with those.
i got two things regarding CD burning.
i have been reading & attempted to understand the man page for cdrecord. i have a CD
drive build in (cdrom) and a SCSI burner (cdrom2). i was hoping there would be an
easy way to copy a CD from the command line, such as
cdrecord -duplicate cdrom cdrom2 **i'm making up that switch you know**
but as i look thru the pages it isn't that easy is it?? or is it?? am i missing
anything here?
next, i have burned a few CDs using gtoaster. i was burning one this weekend and went
to fire up GIMP while doing that. short of the long, Linux did a windoze imitation.
crashed & burned big time. first gtoaster froze, then KFM, then eterm. ended up
shutting down to reboot.
do you think this was because i was trying to do too much at once? i burned CDs after
this crash & it was all good. my system is pretty low end. p2 - 250MHz - 60M ram
(gotta upgrade ram next)
also, had to turn off the power as i could not shut down normally. i kept getting the
same error message over and over:
unmounting file systems unmount2: device or resource busy
unmount: /usr: device is busy
SCSI host 0 abort (pid 5540) timed out - resetting
SCSI bus is busy rest for host 0 channel 0
system appears to be just fine now - so this was just things freaking out because
gtoaster crashed while using my CD burner yes? oh, i have no other SCSI devices.
thanks for advice and tips.
