That works. Another attempt to mount the second disc I burned was successful; however, I'm still unable to boot from it. At this point I'm beginning to question the reliability of this entire package of DVD+R media. BTW, "long" is 8 bytes on x86_64. You have to use "int" to get a 4-byte integer type--which could be Brasero's problem. Though really one should use a type whose size is not architecture-dependent for such a thing as this. -- Braden McDaniel e-mail: <braden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> <http://endoframe.com> Jabber: <braden@xxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
