RE: [expert] CD burning under Mandrake 7.2 rc 1
Any other possibilities? I am going to read the man and info pages on mkisofs, but I think I need to know how it works within the program itself since I'm not calling it from the command line; does that make sense? Try and create the image manually with mkisofs and experiment with the command line options. AFAIK, the gui programs are only frontends to mkisofs and sometimes don't make use of all the options. Using the example on the cooker page is a good place to start. I routinely add -J for Windows compatability. Hoyt Thank you! I'm on it!

No, as long as the /etc/fstab has the user option specified for that mount, any user can mount it (via KDiskFree - kdf). If it is a vfat mount, only that user has write permission. Only the user that mounted it (and root) can umount it. -- Regards, Ron. [AU] Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

Oh, didn't think about that. You mean: /tmp/burn/isoimage /mnt/iso iso9660 loop,noauto,user 0 0 ? Might work, but what exactly are you trying to accomplish by that?

[expert] CD burning under Mandrake 7.2 rc 1
Hello experts, I'm new to cd burning, so I'm wondering if this is me or the program. I tried to use both KisoCD and X-CD-Toaster and I get the same error: "Warning: creating a filesystem that does not conform to ISO 9660" My HP 8100 CD writer was found and configured on install of the system, and both programs seem to be able to find it ok, and I'm able to set up the files I want to burn and set the parameters that I want to use, but when I say 'ok, burn' I get the error message. Any ideas? Is this a problem with mkisofs? TIA, Mike Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

No problems, it just means that you are not creating and ISO image that conforms strictly to the ISO 9660 standards, probably with nested directories or total length of the pathname. Read man mkisofs for some of the commands that deal with this. Certain non-conformities are not fatal.

The newer versions of mkisofs check harder if the image conforms to the iso9660 rules. But you'll be able to burn it anyway, and you'll be most likely to read it also.

Read man mkisofs for some of the commands that deal with this. Certain non-conformities are not fatal. Hoyt Ok, that makes sense; problem is that both the programs I mentioned use mkisofs in the background and neither one gave me the option of bypassing the warning and burning the disk anyway. I was able to make an audio cd today by using the cd duplicate function of xcdroast (put a music cd into the burner, copy to hard disk, then put blank cd into burner and make the copy). I had to chmod 4711 on a handful of programs in order to run as $user (mkisofs included), but it did make a good copy. I'm wondering how that's different from just selecting files to create a data CD? This is what first made me think it was the program itself, but then I received the same error with both programs. Any other possibilities? I am going to read the man and info pages on mkisofs, but I think I need to know how it works within the program itself since I'm not calling it from the command line; does that make sense?
