Got a ways to go before the final Jeanette Well I saved the link to their patch, I guess I'll be fooling with that in a couple of months. The real player G2 is downloaded is an updated file. The old G2 was from May, this one is dated Sept. 29. I did get a stutter running it last night but I'm hoping that was because of heavy internet traffiic. Meanwhile I'm back to trying to figure out xcdroast. I hope to mount my windows files in linux and then have xcdroast copy and burn the mandrake 6.1 iso file I downloaded to windows. Thanks for the info. Rick -- "I don't want to swim in a roped off sea," JB

When I bring up the program and click on the Help pull-down-menu (top right corner of the window) and choose the bottom item, About RealPlayer, it displays an applet that identifies the program like this: RealPlayer (tm) (Unix) Version 6.0.4.238 (Beta) What does yours say.

From /etc/fstab: /dev/hda1 /mnt/dosvfatdefaults0 0 The important thing to keep in mind is the type "vfat." This tells Linux that you're looking at a Win95/98 file system (fat32) instead of a 16-bit fat. Jonn Thanks for the info John I was just mounting it with /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos I'll add the extra language. Now doing this in the /etc/fstab will that add it to my startup menu somehow? I've printed the documentation that came with xcdroast and find the manual a little terse. Does anyone know of a location for a better explanation on how to set up and use xcdroast. I believe I've got the ide SCSI emulation thing worked out . I'd like to burn a cd this weekend. Rick -- "I don't want to swim in a roped off sea," JB

Personaly i guess i'll trust the coder from now on who told it to print beta :)
