I am reading through documentation I found in
http://www.xcdroast.org/manual/dvd.html
It says ==11111=============================================================== Make sure you have a kernel version 2.4.x or higher. (you can test this with the command uname -a). Next, download the appropiate binary of cdrecord-ProDVD for your system from:
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD
For current linux distributions this would be the binary that ends in -i586-pc-linux-gnu, e.g. cdrecord-prodvd-2.01a12-i586-pc-linux-gnu
What you downloaded is a binary, that means, it can directly be used. So, copy it to the xcdroast-bin directory (mostly /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin or /usr/local/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin). Name it "cdrecord.prodvd". (I spent 2 hours of error tracking because I renamed it to "cdrecord-prodvd", what is wrong!) Call chmod 755 cdrecord.prodvd to make it executable. ==11111=================================================================
==22222================================================================= uname -a returned the following for me:
Linux p4 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl #1 Wed Feb 18 16:38:32 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
the above was on one line but Yahoo Mail's word wrap forced "i386 GNU/Linux" to be on a seperate line. ==22222=================================================================
==33333================================================================= Im running an Intel P4 and going to ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD provides me with a list of files. My best guess for the file to download is cdrecord-prodvd-2.01a27-i686-pc-linux-gnu I was hoping to find a 2.4 in the file name but... Can anyone tell me if that is the correct file? ==33333=================================================================
Is there perhaps a newer/other program that has DVD burning built right in to the application?
