simple one: how to copy audio-cd-s on gnometoaster
 

well, could anyone tell me how to copy audio cd-s?
but, as a newbie, i would prefer guides how to do this on gnometoasters gui (that's why i ask it again)

The command line is your friend...

# CD burning copying ripping info
Is it configured and what is the device? Command this to find out:
cdrecord -scanbus

#ISO information

# Erase a CDRW
cdrecord -v dev=<your device> speed=<burning speed> blank=fast

well, i can remember that, but what do i tell my girlfriend?

:D Get your dirty hands off the keyboard! :D

I make an alias in my .bashrc file with a name I can remember such as ripit or burnit

thanks for nice words.

I thought people wrote such nice applications as gnometoaster so that buring CDs etc was actually simpler and less likely to cause problems. ;)

So, to answer the question, open up the main application. Then, in the top left window, navigate to your cdrom drive that contains the music CD (the drive, not its mount point). Click on the relevant drive. The music tracks should appear in the top right window. Make sure you have clicked on the 2nd large icon from the bottom on the left - has a large T for tracks. Then, drag all the files you want to burn from the top right window into the bottom right window. In my Preferences - CD Audio, I have checked the box for Precache Audio Tracks, so as soon as I drag tracks across, my machine starts to rip them. Once it's finished, I select the speed, burnfree etc and hit the record button.

:eek: I forgot the :D

GUI apps cause less problems and makes it easire???? :scratch: My experience: Command line rules (works and gives error messages if something isn't right, nothing is hidden)!

thanks carlywarly!

now i found the problem: gnometoaster only finds the cd-recorder, not reader. that is why i could'nt find the way to do it myself.

but why does'nt it see (mount?) my cd-reader, if all other apps can?

That's because only your writer is emulated as a scsi device. To do the same for your dvd, do this - edit /etc/lilo.conf and add a section like this -
append="quiet devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi "

The important parts are hdd=ide-scsi and hdc=ide-scsi
My drives are secondary master - hdc and secondary slave - hdd, Primary slave would be hdb, primary master hda. So, add a section like mine for whichever hd* you need. Save the new version of lilo.conf then run the command lilo as root in a console. You need to reboot, then open gnometoaster again and both drives should be visible.

Fancypiper - gui apps make it easier, when they work, of course.:)

:tisk: No way! Never! :p :p :p

I fell in love with alias when I discovered it....

i have grub bootloader and grub conf file looks like this

# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda3
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.4.22-1.2115.nptl)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi rhgb
initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.img

so, there is already hdc=ide-scsi added
but where should i add append="quiet devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi "
just to the end, with quotation marks and all included?

thanks for help anyway :)
