Hello everyone, I use Linux Mandrake version 7.2 in a computer which has the i810 chipset and a HP CD writer 9150 (9100 series). The cd writer was already installed by the time I installed Linux. The problem is that I have't been able to write more than two sessions in a disc. I have already read the CD-Writing HOWTO and the README.multi file distributed with the cdrecord program. No error message appears at any of the steps of creating the iso image with mkisofs and recording into disc with cdrecord. The third session simply doesn't appears listed after typing [promt]$ ls /mnt/cdrom2 file_name_first_session file_name_second_session The first time I tried to append a third session, a Windows machine was able to see the third file added to the disc, but Linux never did. In the following attempts neither Windows nor Linux were able to see it. cdrecord seems to write it fine, it even can retreive the first block number in the first track of the third session and the next writable address of the following unwritten session.
