I've been tring to burn an iso image to a DVDRW using K3B and the progress has been setting a 99% for almost an hour. the iso image is only 2GIGS. why is it taking so long?
View 8 Repliesthe software will go through the motions and say burn successful and all the disc itself will even have look like its been written (with the burn circle and all), but when its put into the drive afterwards its still empty. My fstab has
Code:
/dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom0 auto users,rw 0 0
/dev/sr1 /mnt/cdrom1 auto users,rw 0 0
for my drives. Both of them do this, wondering if anyone has any idea why it might do this. I know the drives both work fine.
I have download Slackware 13.37 DVD via bit torrent.But it contain several files in addition to ISO image.I try to burn that folder which contain all this files as image.But it detect only the ISO image. Do i need to burn all this files to DVD or if i burn only the ISO image file will it work.Can i burn them in data format to a DVD.

It seems to run fine for a few minutes and then everything slows down. I try and drag a window or open a menu, type, anything, and it takes forever! Also the internet seems to stop working on a regular basis. I have checked processes to see if there was anything happening and one of the processors was sitting at 100%, but no actual processes in the list seemed to be using any processing power at all!

I am stuck on the screen which says 'Ubuntu 10.10' and has four little orange dots flashing as if it is loading. It has been like this for over 20 minutes now. Is this unusual or is it normal? Anyway, I am restarting my PC and trying again.

So, is it possible or can anyone recommend a program that can do an image of the hdd which I can save on an external drive and install/reinstall it on hard drive if i ever need to?
I've seen some tools available for taking image backups (amanda, bacula, ...) of the O/S. I have a nas drive and want to back up the the entire disk to it (while running preferrably). Can someone recommend what tool would be best to use (free of course) and hopefully not too complex.

I tried brasero and k3b, but, after burning, I cannot read the disks on my PC or DVD player...
Why can't I burn image with k3b After I' ve tried to burn it it says: "Completed succesfully". But when I then check my DVD, there's absolutely NOTHING on it... and there it says:"0 Objects"It seems like it has only got a new label.And burning an image should else be one of the most easy things in life...And it SEEMS very easy when reading a tutorial.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a ISO under DeVeeDee and went to burn it with Brasero (also tried with K3B) and they both came up with error messages.k3b comes up with "Internal error. Short read! Please report" and stops at around 3% and 3-4 minutes into burning. The same error happens under Brasero, it'll stop after a few minutes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedJust finished downloading the CentOS5.5 x86_64 DVD images (2 ISO's), and realize that I have almost run out of DVD-R's. First ISO is a perfect fit for the 4.7GB DVD, the second only is ~400MB. Wondering if there may be any issue if I burn the second one to a CD (which I have plenty). I guess it should be okay, but wanted to double-check.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI read in the F11 install guide that you can download a install iso image and then do an internet install. Since my F11 DVD hasn't arrived yet; I downloaded that ISO ; and figured it'd be a quicker install anyway, since that way I'd avoid having to download all the updates after the DVD install.I have a USB CD-RW drive attached to my laptop, currently running F7. Almost all of the instructions I see for burning a CD image are for Win users and Win software. I did download Brasero and it's acting flaky; it seems to want to unmount my CDRW drive, even when I'm logged in as root; so it doesn't give me that option to burn to that disk.
I found K3B, but that's for KDE and I'm using Gnome -- is there any good CD burning software (with a link please?) I can use?
I am having trouble burning an iso disc image that I downloaded of the Windows Vista Recovery disc for a friend who cannot boot her computer anymore. I downloaded the iso disc image and it mounts on my computer just fine, so it should be able to be burned as the disc image to a CD no problem. However, each time I right click on the iso file, and go down to Write to Disc, and then the menu comes up and I make sure that the destination drive is my CD/DVD burner drive with a blank CD-R in the drive, it burns the disc, but it always ends up being a CD with the file of the iso on the disc...!! It doesn't burn the image, it burns a copy of the image as a file! I uninstalled the CD/DVD burning software that was on my computer and installed CD/DVD Creator instead from the Ubuntu Software Center.
I tried following the steps on [URL] which tells how to burn a disc image from an ISO file. I follow it exactly, but I still get the same results: I get a disc that is not the image, but has the image on the disc. Now, I can mount the image on the disc on my computer, but that won't do my friend any good who needs to BOOT off this disc to fix her computer running Windows Vista. But ever since I wiped out my computer and went Ubuntu, I haven't been able to write an iso disc image to a CD or DVD properly. Does it matter if it is a CD or a DVD that is used? Like, if I put a DVD in, would the disc iso image burn to the DVD rather than a CD because of the way the image was made? For some reason I never thought it mattered, but does it?
Im still a newbie in Linux. I would like to know how to burn an ISO image to DVD using RHLServer.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI got a new-old notebook from ebay, a sony vaio vgn-tt11. it is working really great with slackware and I can recommend it to everyone whose thinkpad got stolen ;-)I am trying to optimize everything I can and one thing is bothering me although I might be wrong about this. "top" is showing X server taking between 4-7% of the cpu even when I am not doing anything (no apps with running in the background). I remember that x server on the thinkpad did use much less cpu. but I checked that on thinkpad at least two years ago.
4-7% is (not) much and I would like to hear whether your X server is taking any cpu power and how much. do you have any ideas how to improve this or is this something I have to live with? I am using vanilla slackware 13.1, gnome slackbuild and kernel 2.6.38. I tried playing with Xorg.conf but it did not help at all. I activated "composite" extension through xorg.conf but nothing changed.

we bought a dual 12-core Opteron machine (Supermicro H8DGi board). Installed Slackware 13.37 and performed some few tests. We observed that performance quickly degraded as the box became loaded. For instance, a lonely task may took "t", but when running 24 of them at the same time (fully loaded box), it may took 2 to 3 times longer. From some test we did (tinkering with BIOS, moving memory modules, etc) we came to the conclusion the problem was due to a terrible memory managment. Finally we solved the problem by recompiling the kernel and taking the .config file from OpenSuse. Thus, there must be something to be tweaked in the standard Slackware .config file

I have my permissions setup correctly, I can even burn DVDs just fine, but every audio CD I try to burn in k3b gives me an unknown error with regard to cdrtools (254). It gives me this error at about 200mb of writing every single time, even when simulating the burn. Here is the error log that k3b puts out.

I recently tried to burn an ISO image to a DVD. Everything seemed to be going fine except Brasero froze at "Finalizing". It stayed there for about 10 minutes before I gave up. When I hit cancel nothing happened. When I tried to eject the drive nothing happened. Not until I shut the computer down and restarted was I able to open my DVD drive. Upon trying to read the disc no computer shows that it has anything on it.
View 13 Replies View RelatedThere is a command that you can type into the terminal that would "burn" an iso image to a storage device (usb). In ubuntu, this command would be <dd if=(path leading to iso) of=(device to be "burned" to)> Is this the same in Fedora, or is it a different command?
