* Anne Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [021109 13:52]: I want to back up some directories of photos, using XCDRoast, but am getting the following error: mkisofs: Error: '/mnt/win_f/Photos/Spain/Card2/pic00027.bmp' and '/mnt/win_f/Photos/Spain/Card1/pic00027.bmp' have the same Rock Ridge name 'pic00027.bmp'. mkisofs: Unable to sort directory What can I do about this? The whole reason for using separate directories is that both SM cards would have numbered the pics in the same way. I think what you're seeing here is a limitation in the CD directory format. A path can only be something like 30 characters long, so the Rock Ridge extension truncates the path, but then saves the whole path name in a separate file, something like what Windows does with long filenames. However, if the only difference in those directories is after that breaking point, it has no way to resolve the ambiguity, so it stops to let you fix it. You could simply change 'Card1' to 'C1' and/or 'Card2' to 'C2' and it should work OK. This may be an oversimplification, but I bet it will work. -- Jan Wilson, SysAdmin _/*]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corozal Junior College | |:' corozal.com corozal.bz Corozal Town, Belize | /' chetumal.com linux.bz Reg.

Re: [newbie] Cd-rw Problem
Hey, I can't seem to get mt CD-RW to work. I've tried Gnome Toaster, X-CDRoast and GCombust. Nothing seems to work. The drive works fine under Windows 2000 and I can record without problem. When I try it using cdrecord from the command line I get the following: snip Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 4 in dummy mode for single session. Last chance to quit, starting dummy write in 0 seconds. Operation starts. snip Fixating... WARNING: Some drives don't like fixation in dummy mode. Fixating time:0.003s Fixating time:0.003s cdrecord: fifo had 64 puts and 0 gets. cdrecord: fifo was 0 times empty and 0 times full, min fill was 100%. snip Anyone have any ideas? What exactly does the command you use look like? There are at least two problems: 1. fifo had 64 puts - are you trying to burn something really small? Cos there should be much more puts when burning a CD. 2. Using the -dummy switch with cdrecord only performs a simulation of the writing process, nothing is actually written. To write something you must not use the -dummy switch. I'd recommend a CD-RW for now to get you running without ruining any CD-Rs. -- HTH Roman Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I like Plextor and it's the one most often cited on LinuxHardware. I like an IDE rather than SCSI burner. Sony should go back to payin attention to makin TV sets, since they're quality has slid a lot in the last few years (ie, tradin on their name). As to speed the only thing that matters is the burn speed, since you shouldn't depend on a CD-RW as your regular CDrom. There's no sense gettin the fastest burner you can find, 'cause speed will be limited by the Cdr media you use, and the speed of the source you use. Generally, 8x should work with any media, burnin from harddrive. 4x for burnin from Cdrom (CDCDr copy), but it's always better to copy to HDD and then burn a copy at 8x. For these purposes, a 4mb buffer is more than enough. My ide plex 8-4-32 burns at 8x keeping the 4mb buffer (fifo) 98 to 100% full. I've never had a buffer under run, and I can use 28¢ 700mb cdr's. Brand name doesn't matter since they don't make 'em anyhow. Right now I've got a spindle of TDK's (700mb) and one of Maxell's (650mb). Both are really made by Ritech. For those that insist faster than 8432 CDr's are better or needed, I'd just refer to Civileme's recent post. Much the same situation. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mandrake-newbiem=101536733910113w=2 It is just about like 56x CD-ROMs versus 8x. The 8x are often faster on single look-ups and definitely do not wear the media as much, but the 56x gives users the impression that they have something smokin' (well, maybe, but not the sort of smoke you want to see). Actually I've had no problems with my plex 8432 ide. Software is another matter. It's always been completely setup and configured right from the get go by Mandrake. Works great with supermount. Never a problem there, and burning from the CL is bulletproof, but it seems most of the GUI frontends aren't keeping up with KDE or Mandrake advances. Some won't even run with the latest cdrecord and mkisofs versions. Gcombust is probly currently the most reliable (with ML 8.2, KDE 2.2.2), still good for data and audio CD's. For making bootable ISO's or copying CD's, I stick to the CL, and 'dd' them to the HDD first, then burn from there. It's actually easier than usin a GUI. alias biso='cdrecord -v -eject speed=8 dev=0,0' /path/to/CD.iso All I got'a do is type 'biso' and paste in the iso I want to burn.

Re: [newbie] CD-RW at hdc inaccessible
When I boot, that first screen that lists all your hardware lists both CD drives as PIO 4. Would that have anything to do with my problem? In other words, should my CD-RW drive be anything else?

RE: [newbie] cd-rw install
Hey KompuKit, I just did this earlier today. I have some kind of factory installed Phillips CD-RW 4x4x24. I'm not sure which one specifically, I didn't open my box to find out.

And to top it off, my Plex 32xCSI CD-ROM drive just shredded its mechanism, which also seems to have fried its electronics, after about five months of VERY light usage. I think their quality control slipped in the last six months to a year or so. My older PlexWriter has been working fine, it's the stuff they were making more recently that seems to be croaking.

Anyway, whenever the CD-RW didn't work, I would go into the HardDrake again and see the following: Toshiba SD-M1212 DVD HP CD-Writer Plus 9100 The unknown SCSI device disappeared. Am I correct in my assumption that the unknown device was a SCSI emulator? Is this why my CD-Writer isn't working? If it is a SCSI driver, how do I reinstall it? Would updating the Kernel or recompiling it help? If so, how would I do that? Thanks for helping me on this mind-boggling problem! Joe, the one-week old Linux newbie. Execute the following as root.. rm /dev/cdrom ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom Bet it does it for you now Cheers -- ICQ# 89345394 Mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected" (The UNIX Programmer's Manual, 2nd Edition, June 1972.)
Re: [newbie] CD-RW help!
Yep. It was a SCSI emulator. You have to install the scsi emulation. I don't remember how, but that should point you in the right direction. I don't believe that "emulation" is the proper term. What you need is a link with the sticky bit set between scd0 and cdrom2 (assuming the drive is the second cdrom) so that the OS can talk to the IDE CDwriter as though it were a SCSI device.

Re: [newbie] CD RW compatibility
As a heads up to those looking into CD-RW, MaximumLinux magazine is going to do a feature on CD-RW in the next issue, due to hit the newstands around 1 September 2000. Be aware that if you write a CD-RW, there is a great probability that you will only be able to read that CD on the machine that wrote it. Moreover, the media is more expensive, and it take longer to burn. That said, I don't know if they make just CD-R's anymore. This info comes from http://www.byte.com in the Jerry Pournelle column. -- John Glasscock Administrator Programmer EtherDog MultiMedia 3821 N Sugar Lane Bloomington, IN 47404 tel:+1.812.876.5233 fax:+1.508.256.2413 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Registered Linux User# 183536 on Registered Linux Box# 81201 "Save the world, eschew Microsoft."

Ben If you read the cdr newsgroup for a while you'll find that most people recommend either a Plextor or Yamaha CDRW, scsi has it proponents also. I've never been a scuzzy fan.

Re: [newbie] CD-RW Support problem/?...URGENT
Michael, That burner should work OK. If it is SCSI there won't be a problem. If it is IDE you will probably have to turn on SCSI emulation in the kernel (if it isn't already). I think all burners should work ok with possible exceptions of the TDK VeloCD and an external USB burners.

RE: [newbie] cd-rw atapi zip drive
Got the smae trouble with Philips RW 3610 on hdb Only way to mount is is on /dev/scd0! Try it Krit. = Original Message From [EMAIL PROTECTED] = I just installed 7.0 and I have two problems, the first one is that 7.0 found my HP 7200i plus cd r-w drive and put it on the desktop as cdrom 2 but when I try to access this drive it tells me " mount: /dev/cdrom2 is not a valid block device" and I cannot use this device at all in linux, but, if I run XCDroast it will "see" the HP 7200i plus and try to set it up?? unusual also 7.0 did not "see" my atapi internal zip drive, there are no entries in fstab for it or anything, I would love to be able to burn cd's and use my zip drive, any help would be appreciated Thank you in advance!!!
