You shouldn't make an iso image out of something which IS already an iso image, just burn the iso file directly (either with cdrecord or, if you need a gui program, k3b or such). If the latter, choose the the "burn DVD image" directly from the tools menu, do not CREATE a new project. -- ******************************************************************* ** Eef Hartman, Delft University of Technology, dept.

You are correct about burning iso images directly to media without putting them on some file system. However, to mee it seems as if he really has the right syntax for doing so growisofs. Even if JakuB would be making the mistake of putting the iso file within a new iso file system he should still be able to mount that DVD but instead of Slackware install directories only see one single big file. However now that is not the case as he was able to install Slackware 13 from the burned disc. I can't say for sure what is going wrong, my guess is that there is some hardware error with the DVD reader. I have never heard of anyone having to use cdfs like this before. Then on the other hand I haven't used Slackware 13 much myself. regards Henrik -- The address in the header is only to prevent spam.

For me surprising is that the wrong DVD was bootable and allowed to install the system but never mind. Regards |
