hello, Can anybody give me some help on burning CDs? I got a PowerEdge 1950 machine (service tag: 17p6tc1). I installed Fedora core 6 OS on it. I found that I cannot use cdrecord to burn CD. If I do: cdrecord -scanbus I got the following messages from linux console: Cdrecord-Clone 2.01 (cpu-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 J�rg Schilling Note: This version is an unofficial (modified) version with DVD support Note: and therefore may have bugs that are not present in the original.
