[LUNI] X-CD-Roast... burning Linux ISO

[Patrick R. White]

Dittos, my fairly new Plextor and Roxio CD creator didn't recognise anymore than the standard 700 MB on those disks! :<(   I's hard to believe that CompUSA would put out media ahead of any recorders that can handle that media yet!  Luckily it was only a $10 mistake?

I would bet that you're still not executing the command correctly, or that you have bad media that isn't working with your burner. Also, try burning at a lower than maximum speed, you may be getting a buffer underrun?
