Adaptec CD,s written in Win

RecoilUK · 08-27-2001, 06:10 PM

Hi guys

I made some cd,s in windows but cant seem to access them in Linux.

I,m using Direct CD 4.0 I think.

These cd,s are cd-rw and I havnt closed the discs, but as i,m trying to read them in the CD-RW drive I dont think this is the reason.

Is there a lib or a program that will allow me to access them.

Thx guys

Firstly, can you write to CD in linux??? I have a lovely hp CD R/W drive which won't talk to Red Hat. When I try to write, I get a SCSI error and system hangs.
Second, have you got FAT/VFAT/DOS support in your kernel?

Hi there

I also have an HP CDRW 7500i, yes I can write to cd in linux but it keeps messing up tar.gz files???? but rpm files are ok thats the reason for using windows.

Secondly I gues I have support for FAT/VFAT and DOS as I can read and write to my windows partion.

I,m guessing adaptec direct cd is using a modified file system.

Anyone got a workaround on this?
