I dunno what I did. This was -test9, using dev=/dev/hdc. It was also
something like a week ago. Halfway through the burn it died because the
buffer had run dry, and I made a second coaster to confirm that it was
scrolling a konqueror window that had done it.
I probably forgot to run it as root. (I don't remember it complaining, but I
was in the middle of about four other things at the time. It did _start_ the
burn, and made it about halfway through.) My laptop was also on battery
power, which may have had something to do with it, although I have a vague
recollection of that working previously, and the battery wasn't anywhere near
dead...
It's not something I've really followed up on. It works if I leave it alone
while it burns, and I haven't had to burn that many cds recently. (I was
burning a knoppix cd for a friend.) I mostly back up through the network...
