I have a DVD writer (ATAPI DVD+RW) 4x4x12 and I'm trying to back up the SuSE 10.0 distribution DVD using K3B. I'm using the drive both for input and output (I assume an image is created in between). But K3B gives me the message "The writer does not support writing Double Layer DVD" as soon as it attempts the copy.
What should I do to create the backup?
If you have enough space on your hard drive, you can do what i do: cp /dev/hdc /home/Suse-10.0-dvd.iso (assuming your DVD drive is /dev/hdc) Then i mount that, set it as my main install source, and then i don't need the DVD again. -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W.
