what the heck is going on here? It won't let me burn CD's for some reason..

no amount of fanangling seems to work.. here's what it says


root@belalthor:/cdrom# mkisofs -R /cdrom | cdrecord -v fs=8m speed=8 dev=0,0,0 -
Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Jörg Schilling
TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM
cdrecord: No space left on device. shmget failed


whats that mean? none of my partitions are full... / is at 70% with 276 Mb available...

come to think of it I think I saw this (no space, shmget failed message) another time a few days ago, though I don't remember what it was...

:confused:

Try a 'cdrecord -scanbus' and check the output. I'm wondering if there isn't another device that's attached itself to the generic SCSI mod, so your other device (USB drive, maybe?) is using 0,0,0 and your CDR should be 1,0,0 or something...maybe the CD you used was bad...

It's not the CD... tried a couple more.

scanbus shows only the CD-RW, at 0,0,0 and nothing else... I don't have any USB devices at all....

Any other ideas? heh
