Kastus, go to the site, these are simplified instructions from SuSE! I realized as many do, that there are ways around everything and different ways to do them by users in the know, but these instructions work with no problems and are generally easy to follow. Think back to the time you were a "newbie" and then maybe you can understand better what it feels like to us. end of line Tracer ---------------------------
Logging in as root is a bad security practice. You better use su to become root, or even better, configure sudo for use with cdrecord.

You are right, logging in as root is hazardous for sure, but sometimes you have to take the risk! ;-) Also, some of us are actually using SuSE as a standard replacement OS on a desktop, no networking, etc involved. Yes, it's true, Linux is ready for the desktop! ;-) And there you go again with your expert thoughts talking over my head at least, what the heck is "sudo"? -- ---KMail 1.3--- SuSE Linux v7.2--- Registered Linux User #225206 /tracerb@sprintmail.com/ *Magic Page Products* *Team Amiga* http://home.sprintmail.com/~tracerb
