misc linux questions -- was: Re: A easier way to create cd's using easy cd creator

Hi all --
With all the discussion of CD burning being so difficult on linux, has 
anyone successfully burned a DVD?
I just purchased a pc with a DVD burner and hope to put linux on it, and it 
would be nice if I could use the DVD burner -- not necessarily to copy 
movies, but to store other things.
Just curious.  When it gets here I will be diving into the linux thing in 
earnest -- up till now i have been lurking but haven't had a machine to work 
with.

Also, I have a question about file systems and partitioning.
Someone on the list told me privately that you can't put 2 different file 
system formats on the same hard drive -- such as fat32 and ntfs or whatever. 
Is that true?  I have a large HD and wanted both linux and XP pro to be 
accessible on that machine.  Can't I specify different file systems for 
separate partitions?
Sorry if this is an inane question.  Disk format and file system specifics 
is not my forte.
TIA

Hello, list,

For those of you who need an easy way to burn a CD under linux but
don't want to mess with all kinds of menus and choices I would
recommend a package called "burn" which I personally use. It is a very
easy to use yet powerful frontend written in python that allows you to
do a lot of things. Debian users can find ready to use package for
this tool and others can go to

With best regards, Sergei.
