hi,
I downloaded and burned a Knoppix cd last night, wonderful system!
I am trying to recover many megabytes of files from a broken XP pro system .. I have a Pikaone ripcase cd writer and a 60 megabyte pen drive.
I can use the pen drive.... /mnt/uba1 ... to copy files. .. but I have been unable to burn files using the Pikaaone ripcase. .. Knoppix sees the device /mnt/ubb .... but when I click to view files on a cd I can't see the files ..
I changed the ownership of /mnt/ubb by ... "su root" and then "chown knoppix ubb" .. this did change the ownership of /mnt/ubb to knoppix .. but still no joy seeing any files on the cd or writing to it
When I right click on /mnt/ubb and choose "create data cd with K3B" I drag the files in , hit burn, and receive the message "K3B did not find a suitable writer ... you will only be able to create an image"
any ideas?
cheers
