Not being a guru, I guess, I have to ask.
Where did you hear that this thing was ported to linux and
how did they accomplish this.
It's a visual basic program that takes advantage of a

Just curious.

Yeah, I caught that. I thought I'd point out what little you need a sound
card for. Or rather, that a sound card has little to do with burning, or
even playing, CD-ROMs.

In addition to what John and Gary have already mentioned...be sure to create
only one session on the CDR. CD players can only read the first session,
but I don't think this will be a problem for you in Linux.

No, you must explicidly "close" the session or else your CD Player will not
recognize it.
Also the burn must be done in one session... In other words if you did not
close the session initially you normally cannot go back and close it, and
still have your player read it.
Computers can handle this

Relax a bit. I believe you can recover with a bit of work.
I think that installing Mandrake overwrote your Master Boot

I think the problem with the installer is perhaps twofold:

no one would ever want to boot between Linux and any other OS than
