Hello all,

Here's one I can't figure out.

Downloaded cdrtools-1.11.dvd.tar.gz, and compiled. Nice and clean worked like a champ. Wrote about 70 megs to the drive. Worked great.

Here's the rub. I've got a 4.7 gig RW disk in the drive, and I'm trying to write 2.7 gigs or so of data. My output's below. Am I doing something wrong here? It says the data won't fit on the disk. Huh?

Weeeiiird. Any hints?

Redhat 7.2 with current set of patches hosts the drive.
