K3b does not do that for you and I have at times overlooked the fact that disks automount when trying to copy disks and when formatting the CDRW (even though I have years of experience and am thus not a newbie) I agree that it may be useful to have that option in k3b and you can easily submit a feature request to the authors. > > > Cheers > > -- > > Antonio Montagnani > > Skype : antoniomontag > > > ROFL.

Jeff, I have clear that a disk MUST be unmounted, but I have also clear that a standard user SHOULD not bother with line commands as there is no option to unmount CDRW from menus. And the problem is also with nautilus burner, so it is not a problem with k3b but how the system mounts/umounts CDRW. But I understand that I am the only one to experience this problem (that I had not before latest updates, I am sure as I blanked/burnt my FC5 on CDRW!!!!)... My other two cents Tnx -- Antonio Montagnani Skype : antoniomontag -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
