I don't have time to look into it right now, but a quick glance at "man datapacker" does show there are quite a few options, and so it may not not particularly simple to use for the first time. Nowadays I usually just put things on USB sticks or external hard drives, so there's rarely a reason for me to write to optical media. IDK why none of the GUI disk writing programs can do it automatically, though -- I do know windos media player can do this automatically because I did it once for a friend. It's about the only thing I was ever really impressed by in windos, LOL. I dragged and dropped 77 GB of music into wmp's burning screen (whatever they call it) and it immediately proposed a solution. I accepted, and it worked great. Wish we had something like that! (minus the DRM-encrusted garbage that makes up much of wmp, of course) > Yes, I check the dvds when i've burnt them that they are readable by > me and the computer itself. > That's rather peculiar. I have the distinct impression that the best one can do with "split" is to end up with mere *fragments* of the original iso, which must then be reassembled to be useful. Has this changed? Or perhaps I misunderstood what your goal was? I though you were looking to play music files directly from the resulting dvds... -- ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ Indulekha -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
