But: the same CD can be opened in windows2000 run in virtualbox in the same oS 11.2 on the same machine. Even files can be copied from the CD to the computer.
Why can not linux mount the CD? How could I fix this?
Thanks,
Istvan
I wonder if that CD was written but not closed (finalized), which was common for some versions of windows. I forget the term for this, but back in the Windows 2000/XP days this was a fairly common practice.
Multi session did have it's uses K3b in kde3 handled multi session discs ok i have used them from time to time
I guess I'd copy off those files in windows and burn a new CD if I were you, or just burn a new .iso and drag that across the net to the linux box.
