Ubuntu :: Unable To Obtain Blank CD-R To Burn ISO
Feb 25, 2011
I am unable to obtain a blank CD-R to burn the ISO. I have it installed through WUBI but due to the size restriction to 30Gig it makes it completely useless to me. I gave my CD away that I got free from shipit and they wont let me get a new one. I have an external HD formatted to NTFS with files on it that I can't lose, they are very important. I might buy a disk later but right now my funds are tight due to bills and such. I use Ubuntu more than Windows, actually Windows is pretty much never used on this machine and due to issues with it I am unable to use it.

I have lost my Karmic CD and have already used it to create a persistent LiveUSB. Now I think I might want to install / dual boot my new laptop with Ubuntu, I really love it and it just works. But I have one Blank CD left, I know Karmic works perfectly. Should I DL 10.04 and try that version? Also I am going to be using this guide to install
http://thpc.info/dual/vista/dualboot..._on_vista.html Yes, I do want to use EasyBCD instead of GRUB, its to risky for me and I am shivering just thinking about it.

I've been trying to burn a windows 7 iso to a blank disc in ubuntu.
I've tried right click-write to disk, it writes it but the disc won't boot and when I look inside the disc there's no files present.
I tried doing it with cd creator and it gives me some messages like.
"Do you want to create a disc from the contents of the image or with the image file inside?"
"There is only one selected file
("xxxxxx.iso") It is the image of a disc and its contents can be burnt."
I click "burn as file"
Then I get a message saying "Do you really want to add "xxxxxx.iso to the selection and use the version of ISO9660 standard to support it"?
"the size of the file is over 2gb. Files larger than 2gb are not supported by iso9660 standard in its first and second versions. it is recommended to use the third version of iso9660 standard which is supported by most operating systems including linux and all versions of windows."
I click add file.
Then it starts "estimating the file size" It says please wait untill this operation is completed, but it never does, I left it for 2 hours.
I also tried burning with infra record in windows and get some error messages, and I also tried brasero in ubuntu with no success.

I have been trying to burn an ISO to a blank DVD with Brasero Disc Burner, but every time I try, it gets at around 93% done, then gives me:
"The disc could not be ejected, though it needs to be removed for the current operation to continue"
I have attached a screenshot of the error. And this is not my error screenshot, I have a different DVD Drive. I just attached this one because I didn't want to wait for it to give me an error again so I could take my own screenshot.
Does anybody know why this happens? Or a way to fix it? Or a different software to burn ISO to DVD that is as simple as this one.

I just got a AWUS036H Alfa Network Adapter but there's like 10 folders on teh CD that it comes with, and there's read me's in about all 10 of'em, i have no damn idea which one to install. I went ahead and just did ifconfig wlan1 up and brought the interface up, went to wicd network manager and added wlan1 to wireless adapter
when i try connecting to my wireless router, it says resetting Ip ddress, something else with the configuration file, then obtaining IP address... it just hangs there for about 2-3 minutes and gives me an error... anyone else know how to set up this adapter?

Linksys router and an acer aspire one. I have updated to the 9.10 netbook remix and the laptop associates with the router but will not pickup dhcp. If I specify an address then the machine looks like its connected but will not go to a website. I manually inserted dns but still nothing. So I updated to
linux-backports-modules-karmic-generic
linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic
Still will not use DHCP , I to am using ethernet at the moment. It was working before the update.

I have just installed Ubuntu 9.10 (64 Bit) and I'm trying my best to get this Linksys WMP300N wireless adapter to work.I have searched and gone through a number of threads here with some level of progress but I still can not get this to work.Adapter info is BCM43XG [14e4:4329] rev 01I have installed driver bcmwl5.inf using ndiswrapper and ndisgtk.I had absolutely no success trying to use network manager applet so uninstalled it and went with Wicd instead which at least sees my SSID network with a strong signal.My network is encrypted using WPA and I entered the passphrase which seems to pass authentication but it keeps trying to get an IP address until finally it just tosses a failed message.I feel as though I'm really close but it just won't connect.
iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

I feel really stupid here. I've looked around but no fix I can figure out. I downloaded a i386 iso of Ubuntu to install on my daughter's laptop and I can't get the CD/DVD Creator on my main computer to burn it to either CD or DVD.
I *know* I've done it before but maybe that was on Jaunty not Lucid which I have on my computer now.
I can load the iso file into CD/DVD Creator and when I get to the "Write to disc" option it says: "Write disc to: FILE IMAGE" and there is no option to write it to my CD/DVD drive. It's as if the DVD writer is not mounted.
EDIT: The md5 checksum is fine, by the way..

I have ubuntu 10.4 installed, everything works on my Toshiba A200-TJ9 laptop except for the built in webcam and mic, as well as the DVD burning function of my multi drive.The drive itself is a HD-DVD Rom with CD/DVD +/- R/RW capabilities.I did a $sudo cdrecord -scanbus and it shows:
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0)'Toshiba' "DVDW/HD TS-L802A" "TO35" Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1)*
0,2,0 2)*[code]...
Beyond that i know absolutely nothing, and when i put in a blank CD or DVD -R, it shows up as a blank CD/DVD-R, but its properties show as 0 bytes used, 0 bytes free and 0 bytes for capacity. And not surprisingly, Brasero says not enough disc capacity when i try to burn a 2.7 gig file onto the DVD-R.

I'm running Lucid Lynx and have been trying to burn an MP3 file to a CD-R so I could listen to it in my car. I've tried Brasero, CD/DVD creator, KB3, GnomeBaker, and VLC, and all of them failed in one way or another. Since Brasero comes stock and people have more experience with that one, I think I might describe the troubles with it.
What happens is that it doesn't seem to recognize the blank medium inserted. I open a project (either Audio CD or Data CD), add the files I want to burn. Then it says, "Please insert a writable CD or DVD if you do not want to write to an image file." I insert a blank CD-R, and it spins it, but nothing changes. The pulldown at the bottom still only gives me the choice of writing an image file. No recognition that the blank medium has been inserted and that that is where I want to burn the file. When I hit the
"burn" button, it opens a dialog box, asking me where I want to locate the image file it has called "brasero.cue"
Not sure how to do further troubleshooting on this.When I tried the same thing in GnomeBaker, I got an error message saying the burning has failed. Here's the log file from that:
wodim: No write mode specified.
wodim: Assuming -tao mode.
wodim: Future versions of wodim may have different drive dependent defaults.
wodim: Operation not permitted. Warning: Cannot raise RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limits.
scsidev: '/dev/sr0'
devname: '/dev/sr0'
[Code]...
The burner works fine (as tested in Windows), and it reads CDs and DVDs no problem. I just can't get the burning to complete correctly. I have installed the restricted extras. I'm not really concerned WHICH program I use, I'd just like to be able to burn a CDs for road trips and whatnot.

I am unable to burn data cd's. I tried both k3b and Brasero. Both of them seems to be burning but about 70% through both say unknown error and ejects the cd. I am using cd-rw. I tried different cd's but the error is the same.

I can't burn a data disk through Ubuntu.I tried using the built-in disk creator, It had some kind of error saying the disk cannot be mounted. So I used Brasero instead and I got essentially the same error. When I tried to open both CD's the files appeared to be present but were all corrupt. Braso works fine for burning music CD's but I can't get it to work for data. here is the error log from Brasero:
BraseroReadom stderr: Time total: 131.474sec
BraseroReadom stderr: Read 666760.00 kB at 5071.4 kB/sec.
BraseroReadom stderr: HUP
Session error : Some files may be corrupted on the disc (brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2862)

I'm unable to burn CD-RW in K3b (error message "cdrecord has no permission to open the device"). Apparently, this is a wide-spread problem and there are a lot of posts on the internet that deal with it, but none of the advice I've found has worked so far.
I've tried the following:
(1) Updated K3b to the most recent version.
(2) Checked the device name of my CD burner (= sr0), and made sure I have access to it (sr0 is assigned to the group "drive", and I've added myself to this group, and also to "cdrom", just to be sure).
(3) Checked whether I have access to the applications /usr/bin/cdrecord, /usr/bin/wodim, and /usr/bin/cdrdao. Set the permissions to 775 (rwxrwxrx) and the ownership/group ownership to root/disk.

I have a new install of OpenSUSE 11.2 and am unable to burn CD's or DVD's. I am running Gnome, but have tried both Brasero and K3B. Have ensured that the user I am logged in as is a member of the 'cdrom' group, and have cross checked the permissions on files and devices such as /dev/sr0, /usr/bin/wodim etc. Have also attempted to burn as root with no success.

For the longest I have been unable to burn an audio CD that contains ogg files with GnomeBaker, and have always had to decode to wav manually. Well I'm tired of doing that, so want to get to the bottom of the problem. Upon adding an ogg file to the file list, the error I receive is:
"The plugin to handle a file of type audio/ogg is not installed." I have all the gstreamer0.10-plugins-[base|bad|good|ugly] packages installed. I can play an .ogg file with rhythmbox.
Using gconf-editor, /system/gstreamer/0.10/audio/profiles/cdlossy is "active" and the cdlossy profile is listed in /system/gstreamer/0.10/audio/global/profile_list At a loss on what I need to do.

Applied the Lucid Lynx 10.04 over the weekend.
Since then - I am unable to burn DVDs, although I can successfully read DVD's.
Everything worked fine before the upgrade.
Under Lucid Lynx I am able to burn CD's (both data files and .ISO) so it isn't the hardware.
I have tried Brasero and k3b as burners - they issue messages that the burner doesn't like the medium, which is standard DVD-R.
Bear in mind that I could burn similar DVDs *before* the upgrade...
Any help or suggestions on how to fix this please?

this dam program was working fine till I received some updates.why would we update if it just makes things worse the list of thing wrong with this os is growing like not being able to burn an iso without downloading gnome baker. video is just **** and gets worse with every xorg update pulse is like the old cereal commercial snap crackle and pop usb mounting problems to no end never ming trying to burn a Decent dvd now that I vented lol does anyone know of a fix for aramok crashing all the time while playing a song.this only started after I got some updates
I'll tell you one thing the guy who started that thread asking way we have not switched from windows yet should be hung by his gonads for sure like there is ever any chance of replacing windows with errors like this funny this is only a few the list marches on it get s bigger never smaller.The iso burning problem has been around for years now. thats all I can say is there should be a lot of **** flying upstream at xorg pulse and everyone else there work of late sucks as far as bug corrections and proper driver support
I know it 's not fedora is mostly upstream but don't we think its time for someone to say something about this garbage flowing down to us Any how if anyone knows how to get arormoko stop crashing every song. I find they work great when the first come out then the updates hit and it time to dump it for something newer

I am not able to burn audio CDs with Brasero 2.30.1, which uses cdrdao 1.2.3 However, Opensuse 11.3 comes with cdrdao 1.2.2 I don't feel comfortable replacing the version myself. Is there any plans to update cdrdao for Opensuse any time soon? PS: I am running Gnome in Opensuse 11.3

I can write to CD+R no problem but when I try to write to DVD it does not work. When I put the DVD in the drive and go to computer and click open I get a message " unable to mount location, no media in drive." If I have a blank CD+R it says blank CD in drive but with the DVD I am having problems. I have way to many family pictures and I'd like to put it on 2 DVDs instead of 12 CD+Rs.

Upgraded online from 10.04 to 10.10 this morning....went OK I think! Was offered option to upgrade further to 11.04...and went for it!! Returned later to a blank screen.....unable to wake the machine....no disk activity Now have some function via a live CD......any thoughts on how I can proceed from here? I would like to persevere with the 'upgrade' route, as a fresh install will result in much loss of files

When i use my computer (whether it's going online, typing, playing a flash game, or coding) I get these "Black Flashes" that are becoming longer and more frequent. A "Black Flash" is when my computer screen turns blank (but you can still see the backlight) and i have to press the NUMpad ENTER button, shake my mouse furiously, or click my mouse, which sometimes causes undesired actions, but gets me my screen back. sometimes the Black Flashes last a milisecond or 5 seconds or i have to hold the power button and restart because it won't come back on.

Ubuntu Karmic Koala

I have an Ubuntu server running behind a router and I generally manage it from a remote location. I ran into a problem today when I changed the subdomain that the router is on and in turn changed all of the ip addresses for everything on the local network. After restarting the router, I can no longer access the Ubuntu server.
I made sure that I changed the port forwarding settings to reflect the changes in ip addresses. Also the router does not even show the Ubuntu server as having an ip address issued to it. So from that I guess that the server never requested for a new ip after the router restarted. I think I've had this problem before and I ended up restarting the entire server manually. I know that if I restart it, everything should be back to normal. That's what I'll have to end up doing, but I wanted to avoid having this problem in the future, so I was wondering if there is any way to set up the server so that it requests for a new ip address automatically.
