308285 2004-12-28 10:23:00 Something is causing umounting problems while fiddling with all this - twice tonight on reboots the /home partition did not unmount at shutdown! Not nice.

Anyway thanks for help - off to bed.

308287 2004-12-29 05:43:00 Thanks Chill - but no change. Software locks up after the image is created and before anything is written to the CD-R johnd (85)
308288 2004-12-29 05:51:00 Run it as root and see how you get on.

Some changes in the 2.6.3 kernel fsck'd cdrecord....

308289 2004-12-29 06:27:00 K3b will not get past sensing CD-R drives when run as root - just locks up at splash screen. Gets well past this stage as normal user. johnd (85)
308290 2004-12-29 06:39:00 Have you run k3bsetup ?
There may be the option to do this from kcontrol otherwise....

308291 2004-12-29 07:13:00 OK - I have found a whole bunch of programs that k3b needs to run that do not seem to be installed. What happened to the dependancies at install time?

I decided to make a backup to CD of my photos in the mean time using SuSE9.1 and k3b. All backed up nicely (I checked I could read the CD) but when rebooted to FC3 the directories, subdirectories and files all appear as a single unreadable file????

But none of these programs seem to be supplied on the RC3 CDs.

I have to devote some time to a more pressing matter but if somebody can get me going here I would be most appreciative. I have a friend who is ditching MS Windows & going to FC3 - this will not be a great start if this is typical of FC3 and CD burning! :badpc:

308293 2004-12-29 07:41:00 What sort of programs need to be installed?

This is really strange. My K3b works straight up with no issues. What does this give?

cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info

And can you post your fstab here as well. Thanks :)
