To create a new data disk, other than the integrated "export" functions in iPhoto, iTunes, etc. you need to: - Open the Disk Utility - Create a new image of a certain size (will show up on the Desktop) - Drag'n'drop files using the file manager in the disk utility - Burn the image back in the Disk Utility What do you think of: - when blank CD/DVD is inserted, popup non-spatial nautilus window, with the sidebar tree rooted at CD/DVD creator - remove CD/DVD creator from the places menu - Add a "Master and burn CD/DVD" application entry in the system tools menu Would it make the task smoother? This is why I asked for use-cases and workflows, they're not just for show, they're useful. -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
