Buring DVD Data Disc Help
G'Day,
Ok, my external usb hard drive is having some problems under windows, basically it freezes any time I click on anything to do with the drive. I downloaded Knoppix last night and burnt it to cd this morning, when plug my drive in under knoppix it seems to be working just fine , now I want to burn all my files off my usb hard drive onto a DVD then format the usb drive.
Does anyone know how to do this?
I tried using k3b but it keeps saying the files I want to burn arn't local files???
I did some research just then and apparently knoppix uses ramdrive as a temp space for the files I want to burn, but ramdrive is very small. So could I use my internal system hard drive as kind of a temp space to put the files when they burn?
Regards

Yes, but it's not that straight forward. Here are the general steps:
1) mount your internal harddrive
2) create a soft link from /tmp to the mountpoint for your drive
Some caveats: the harddrive must be a filesystem that Linux can write to, so no NTFS. Also the commands must be run as root. You may also have to change the permission bits on the mount point in order to allow users to write to it.
That's the general way. If you need more details, please post back.
