SuSE Linux: Versions since 7.0
You would like to use X-CD-Roast to write CDs, as detailed in your
manual, chapter 7 "Configuration".
If you are using an ATAPI CD writer and/or an ATAPI CDROM drive, you've already
configured the SCSI emulation according to the manual. If you already had
problems with that, please read the article
SuSE Linux 7.0: Writing CDs with ATAPI CD writers.
You've also successfully finished the setup of X-CD-Roast. But now that you
want to write a CD and click e.g. on 'Copy Audio-CD' X-CD-Roast crashes.
X-CD-Roast copies read audio tracks (or images) to a directory or
partition, as specified in the setup, for temporal storage. You want to to
save these files in a directory but under 'HD-Setup' you selected a
partition and specified the so called image mount points. Alas, this
partition doesn't exist on your system and isn't mounted under the specified
mount point.
Second possibility: you've selected 'Image-Data-Path' as default in the setup but the directory you entered there doesn't exist.
In both cases X-CD-Roast doesn't find its temporal storage area and exits.
Please do all setup entries up to the `HD-Setup'. You want to put the files that xcdroast will cache into a directory, please create this first issuing
mkdir directory
or by using kfm (replacing directory
with the name of
your choice). Possibly adjust the access rights of this directory. Now enter
this name under `Image-Data-Path' and please also activate the "Default"
option in the last line of this dialog.
Now complete the rest of the setup and the crashes should be gone.
Consider using the option of creating a log file (`Misc'-> `Logfile').
This log file greatly helps to indentify and fix Problems.
