I have a machine that was at about 4.11 and burned CDs on it with no problem using burncd. Nearly all of these were boot/install CDs - including the one to install FreeBSD 6.1. But immediately after installing 6.1, I can no longer successfully burn a CD. It seems to go through the motions but then nothing seems to get on the CD. I would just write this off as a CD burner gone bad except I have another box here that doesn't seem to want to burn a CD using burncd now that it has been upgraded to 6.0 and this machine has rarely been used for making CDs. Anyway, it is still probably a failing burner, but I want to make sure I am not overlooking something that would account for this happening just as I did the upgrades - actually fresh clean installs. Thanks for any information you might have, ////jerry Jerry McAllister jerrymc@msu.edu
