I just had it make the .iso file which I then loop mounted and verified that it was OK. No options to set, it just worked. Which version of Fedora / K3B are you running? Do you have 130,000 data files or 130KB of data?

k3b users, I need help.
I have used k3b before to burn iso's, but never to build a CD/DVD of my own files. (I used to use xcdroast for this...) In any case, Im trying to build a CD with about 130k of data files. They were initially under 3 directory heads, but to simplify things Ive moved the directories under one directory head. When I bring up k3b, and drag that directory from the top to the bottom window, it tells me that there is 5.7Mb there, which is wrong. If I burn the CD, I see a whole lot of empty directories. So how do I tell k3b that I want all the data below each directory head? That would seem to be the obvious default, but its not happening, and I dont see any option to turn it on/off. Probably something stupid, but whatever, I need help. -- Reg.Clemens r...@dwf.com -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
