[CentOS] Natulius CD burner does not accept my 700Mb CD-R disks
When I try to burn anything to cd, I get a message to insert a CD large enough for my file (normally an ISO image). Doesn't matter if the iso image is a 600Mb Centos ISO or a 48Mb DSL ISO. Same warning. My CD-Rs are Memorex 700MB/80min 52x disks that work just fine on XP systems.

However, from what you said it is now apparent (to me) that you _originally_ installed the xen kernel. This is because /etc/sysconfig/kernel is set up by anaconda at the install time and in your case it had the "kernel-xen" defined. In this case, editing /etc/sysconfig/kernel is indeed required because removing the xen kernels would not touch that file.

This system actually had a clean install of RHEL which still had about 6 months of entitlement left and it probably asked me about installing xen and I failed to grasp the significance of that question/answer at the time...I don't even recall seeing it. I have since migrated the system to CentOS 5. I also have done CentOS 5 installations and noticed that the choice of xen install was fairly obvious, perhaps I learned to pay attention. In fact, I didn't even check until you had me do the modinfo and then I ran uname to double check and it smacked me in the face...xen returned on me for no apparent reason (but the apparent reason was obviously /etc/sysconfig/kernel) and I learned something. Obviously the choice of xen install includes not only the /etc/sysconfig/kernel setting but also the xen support packages I previously listed.

[CentOS] OT? Creative Zen player not registering as a USB device
I plugged my son's new (Christmas) Zen V player into my CentOS 5.1 box and it doesn't register as a device that the system can see or mount. If I lsusb, it shows up as bus 2, device 8, but there is no corresponding /dev/??? device for it, so the system can't get at it. (I tried my flash drive in the same USB port and it works fine, so it's not the hardware.) How do I get around this?
