No kidding. I don't count that as a bad experience. I'd say it was great and
professional. He couldn't help you directly (the issue is not specific to
Stormix but general Linux question) but pointed you to various bits of
information that explain exactly what you need to do. If that's not service,
I don't know what is.

On a semi-related note: linuxdoc.org is THE place to get information on "How
do I..." kind of questions. If you've read the docs and still pull a blank,
ask the list. Many of us here (myself included) know how to burn CD-R(W)'s
under Linux and I do it all the time. I have a script that loads the modules
I need in the correct order and then I use cdrecord to burn a CD.

Just my 2� worth.
