[Bug 216095] New: K3b can not create *.iso images bigger then 4G and escapes without any message in such a case
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216095 Summary: K3b can not create *.iso images bigger then 4G and escapes without any message in such a case Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: rumimi@abv.bg QAContact: kde-maintainers@suse.de K3b can not create *.iso images bigger then 4G and escapes without any message in such a case. Q1: Can somebody reproduce the situation or othewise - a build big iso file (bigger than 5-6 GigaBytes. I should look for other reasons of this behaior? It hapened that K3b was asked to create an *.iso image (of a big folder - bigger than 6GB). It started to work but after a while it closed at all without any message. Cheching the folder you find a 4Giga *.iso file created but it seems incorrectly created and NOT containing the whole initial (6G) folder items. I do not know if the iso standard is the problem (suppose - which i do not know - the standard does not allow bigger *.isi files). But even if so, K3b has to tell the user whats going on and stay open before shutting down. In the same time K3b should offer other extention for the file (if the iso-standard limitations exist) and create a (non iso(9660?)) file being able to mount this file and/or - burn it on a double layer DVD DL. Any comments? Actually, I would like to know Q2: ... if K3k cn burn double layer DVDs and/or iso files isolating in such a way the option of hardware faile (bad sectors where K3b executables are installed. In this connection - Q3: ... are there any tools (in openSUSE 10.1) to check the surface of the hard disk? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

The iso spec doesn't stop at 4GB - or we would not be able to make 5 and 9 GB large SUSE Linux disks. Try running k3b from the console and see if there is any error message when it stops. Other thoughts - out of disk space? out of memory? Run the system monitor panel applet so you can see if the OOM killer is whacking k3b or mkisofs. Q2-3: Sorry, this is not a support channel - see the opensuse.org mailing lists. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

K3b 1.0 splits image files in chunks of 2gb on fat file systems. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
