[Trisquel-users] Ripping Songs with Brasero

2014-02-13 Thread sv . antonio
I'd like to rip some songs from a CD I own but I don't want to copy the whole CD, just a couple songs to have in my computer. Is it possible to do this with Brasero? Brasero gives me 2 options: To create a 1:1 copy of a CD or to burn it. Is there a way to select the songs you want to rip?

I tried Debian GNU/Hurd in one computer I have and the GRUB didn't install. This was the only issue. In a virtual machine it works (KVM or VirtualBox) :-)

I found Brasero... lacking. Perhaps try Sound-juicer or some other tool.

Well, I can tell you how to get around it and still encrypt the disk: 1) Select manual partitioning 2) Create a ~300MB partition, set it to ext4, set it's mount point to /boot. Make sure to set it bootable. 3) Create a partition about 1 to 1.5 the size of your physical ram to be used as an

I use abcde, available from Trisquel repositories; it is very good -- only, it has no GUI, but I prefer that way: just edit the config files, create alias if you want and voilĂ .

I can recommend bashburn. It also has no gui but some kind of pseudo gui (ncurses interface) and it worked like a charm everytime I used it and it also has the possibility to copy a cd to the hard disk and convert the wav files to mp3, ogg or flacs. It's very easy to use; only problem: you

The best CD ripper I know is Rubyripper, which is a secure ripper - it rips each file at least twice until it gets each block to ensure the file is not corrupt which makes it slower compared to other rippers. You can select which tracks to rip in the settings. It can be downloaded from this

They seem to have live CDs available. Other than the Debian based probably have the vanilla Linux kernel with non-free blobs and all. Besides that it's probably clean.
