Suse 9.2 Pro I made a iso of a windows partition with dd calling it Win98.iso. Its about 4 gig. I am trying to burn it as root and always k3b refuses to recognize it as a iso. How can I manually force the writing of this data dvd? cdrecord -scanbus does not return a result, root or user, so what alternative is there? -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

Because it is -not- an iso file, it is only a data file. You need to copy it as such. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

Can you tell us the entire command you used?

K3b burn data dvd. Lost the file but I will be making another backup of the same windows partition. Seems the dvdrw drive also died so I have to correct that first. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

If cdrecord -scanbus does not return a result, it means your drive is not being detected for some reason. Are you aware the command is slightly different for ATAPI vs scsi emulation? cdrecord dev=ATAPI --scanbus Bryan **************************************** Powered by Mepis Linux 3.3.1 KDE 3.3.2 KMail 1.7.2 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.
