This way, all your tools will be broken one day ;) > > Sincerely, Dmitry Since this is a very old and well known issue, and it seems there is no one left solcing/developing this tool, it should be removed from the source tree for the time it is to said broken. burncd had some nice advantages over cdrecord: it came from the BSD tree, it had capabilities for burning DVD+RW images. Disadvantage was the limitation to ATA interface. Someone should suggest the stripp off the sources via PR? Regards, Oliver -- O.
