I am attempting to use knoppix to recover the data from my hard drive that crashed. I want to burn the data off of my old drive to CD's/DVD's and am having some difficulty doing it. I'm brand new with Knoppix so my knowledge is pretty limited.
I am using Knoppix 4.02
I have 2 writeable drives, one CD and one DVD
I have set the drive permissions to write (I beleive I have - i right click on the drive, select properties, permissions and make them writeable)
I right click on the drive, select the make data disk and I put the files I select the files I want to burn.
When I try to burn the CD it does a couple of things.
First it says there is no writeable CD in the drive. (There is)
Second it says I get an error that basiclly says (Error, unable to determine the size of the volume to be written)
I'm sure i'm making some simple mistake but as stated above I'm new at this. Can someone assist me? Even just a link to an idiot resistant set of instructions on burning data disks would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
