Re: Writing cd's
I altered something earlier this evening, but no joy then. Not sure what I altered but tried again just now with xcdroast and it worked. Thanks Chris Nick for your help. Barry

That's correct, assuming that /mnt/cd is a mount point you have created. It's usually /mnt/cdrom mount should be able to deduce the type of file system it's mounting for itself. Note that you do not mount the cd to write to it. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell NB. This PC runs Linux.
