Burning DVD with Knoppix
Hi,
I'm new to Knoppix, but familiar with computers. I dl and installed
v.6.7 on a flash drive in order to recover files from my inaccessible
hard drive (can't get pass welcome page). Had no trouble at all with
the Knoppix install, boot up and having all my hard drives to
automatically mount.
Prior to installing WinXP, my internal WD drive was partitioned into a
NFTS-formated C drive and FAT32-formated D drive . I also have an
external WD Elements Drive (FAT32) which is almost full and which I
can access through Knoppix. The D drive has about 30 gb of unused
storage, but not enough to hold everything on my C drive which I want
to reformat and reinstall WinXP.
My intention is to move enough from the D drive (I'd hope to burn 4-5
DVD's) so that I can backup my C drive to it.
When I put a Sony DVD+R into my Plextor PX-708A burner, the disc is
recognized, but I cannot get it to mount. I get the following error
message:
"Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
mount: block device /dev/sr1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified"
This message is confusing as I had no trouble burning these DVD's when
I could use WinXP and I really don't understand what is meant by
"write-protected". Does this refer to the burner or bland DVD?
I've read several post about burning DVD's on this forum, but all of
them had to do with burning Knoppix (I assume using WinXP), and not
Linux. Also something about not being able to burn anything from a
NFTS-formated hard drive, which I also don't understand.
So, is there somebody out there that could tell me what I need to do
next. Is there some program not included in my version of Knoppix
that I need to download.
Thanks
John
