Hi All, Some of the discussion recently has touched on ripping one's own CDs for archival purposes. I've consistantly rejected the idea of doing this in my case for space and time reasons, and in the belief that commercially produced CDs when properly treated can be expected to have a very long life. However, I'm now questioning this assumption. I have a 2 CD set of "The

Any attempt to do so will result in the following error message: ISOLINUX 6.02 ETCDisolinux: Disk error 01, AX = 4279, drive FE It is still possible to

I am trying to run my own legal copy of Propellerhead (http://www.propellerheads.se/) Reason 2.5 through Wine on latest Ubuntu on Asus (http://www.asus.com/) netbook, which has no optical drive. When the application starts, it asks me to ?Please insert the CD?, which I thought I knew how to do because after all, I had to mount the one of the three ISOs to start the installation. I run this

Hi, I am trying to track down a ISOLINUX boot problem on my workhorse computer. Booting slax-6.0.0-rc5.iso from www.slax.org (a live distro) from CD gives the following messages: Loading /boot/vmlinuz ........... Loading /boot/initrd.gz ............ Ready. _ Silence. The next message should be, but does not appear: Uncompressing Linux ........... This message appears with the same CD on an old

I see that this was the right place to fire off this question. Thanks for your feedback. It has given me a base to start some trials. I used to use EAC on Windows, but I tend to only use open source software as much as possible and I don't use Windows any more. I gave a brief look at abcde, but it is clear I need to look at this some more. It looks like it has the potential to do everything I

I have installed Big Game hunter 5 from the CDs that I own. But when I go to play the game it tells me I need to insert CD into CD-rom. Is there a way to make windows recognize your CD-Rom Drive on your mac computer?? If so, How?? Thanks, Ashley W

Hi, Bit late to join in the discussion but I've just read through the CD archiving discussion and was particular interested in Dax's method, described here (also included below): http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac/2006-September/000611.html So far I've just been flac-ing my CDs to individual one-flac-per-track files, however it appears I've been missing some of the other bits

um, portable cd player, that you can burn a audio disk, cd-r to play music, was wondering if there where any native cd players, that can read and decode .flac files...

Hi: Saw this in Edupage today. Grrrrrr. Geoff. From: EDUCAUSE <educause@EDUCAUSE.EDU> COPY-PROTECTED CDS QUIETLY SLIP INTO STORES Macrovision, in coordination with several major recording labels, has for several months been piloting new technology to prevent music consumers from copying CDs onto their PCs. The technology distorts CD recordings with a series of audible pops and clicks

This must be possible; not sure how to do it yet. :) After facing the thought of going through my cd collection for a 3rd time for re-encoding, it occurred to me that I should just flac the whole CD and add a cue sheet, and then back up to DVDs. That way -next- time I need to re-encode to any format, I can handle ~1/20th the discs, compared to my whole cd collection. :) Wondering if

Hey FLAC gang - Just thought you'd like to know CD Baby has switched to FLAC for archiving the 40,000 CDs we have in stock. Luckily HD space is down below $1/gig so we got a 6-terabyte RAID-5 box set up for about $7000. Got the FreeBSD boxes churning away night and day, ripping and archiving. I'll do a more formal press release for ya in a couple months as we're further along, but

It occured with every BIOS system I tested on (none of them Dell): 1. HP G62 laptop (i3) 2. Samsung RV520 (i3) Don't know what system Philip Muller uses; have copied him in as he has far more technical knowledge than I do. Syslinux tested from Arch and Manjaro (an Arch derivative). Basically found then when creating latest ISO images. I may be missing something as well about the FMs. Just

Hey all. I was an "early" adopter of mp3 (1994-1995), and I took great pains to use digital audio extractors and avoid jitter and whatnot thru proper hardware - back then, this was no mean feat. Well, I'm starting to switch to Ogg (dragging out all the CD's, starting over) and I want to know if anyone has an informed opinion on the merits or demerits of "normalization"

I prefer to run games that require CDs from image files, since it is faster and protects the life of my CDs. In windows, I would just mount the disc image and I could then play. But using Wine and Ubuntu, it appears to work differently. When installing a Windows CD using WINE under Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit, how should I go about mounting a disc image so it is seen by games running under WINE as a CD?

Hi, I have downloaded the following version: CentOS-5.5-i386-LiveCD-Release2.iso from the mirror: http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/centos/5.5/isos/i386/ What I want to ask is that 'Release2' is the complete OS and after installation we can use 'yum update'. So at first, is it enough (as I am not going to download the complete set of 7 CDs)? -- Regards, Parshwa Murdia Making the simple

I have the 6 CDs for CentOS 5, and I have installed it on a couple of computers without any problem. I just tried to create a virtual machine under VMware 5.5.4, it goes through the 1st CD without problem, and crashes on the 2nd CD for Xorg. Any suggestion? -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com When the network has to work
