CD burning problem with k3b

When I burn any CD using k3b 0.11.16, with all default options, it shows that burning is successful but finally no browser (linux/windows based) can read the CD. Can anyone help me to solve the problem?

RE: CD burning problem with k3b

Please provide us some more info. What kind of CD is it? Is there any error message when you mount the CD? If you have another OS at hand, like Windows, can it read the CD? Do other CD's also have this problem?

Just a couple of questions to find out more info.

RE: CD burning problem with k3b

Thanks for your prompt reply. It was simple recordable blank CD having writing speed support upto 52x. Whenever I use k3b to burn this kind of CD, at the time of mounting the following error comes
"/dev/hda: Input/output error
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified
Please check that the disk is entered correctly."
Even windows cannot read the CD. But when I burn (same kind of CD) CD using windows based software like Nero there is no problem. I used Nautilus burning software using linux, that is also okay but since it cannot support multisession option I opted for k3b which has those features. But everytime I use k3b I am facing the same problem.

RE: CD burning problem with k3b

Somehow, this looks related to a wrong filesystem on the CD. Look in the File System tab in the Burn dialog of a Data CD.

[x] Rock Ridge Extensions
[x] Joliet-extensions
[ ] UDF structures

Maybe your system doesn't have support for the latter. Also, try to mount your CD with

Source code

1
mount -t autofs /dev/hda some-mountpoint


By the way, did you compile your own kernel? If this is the case, you probably forgot to include some filesystem options.

RE: CD burning problem with k3b

In the Filesystem tab in the Burn dialog of a Data CD only the first row is checked, both Joliet-extensions and UDF structures are unchecked, so if I check against Joliet-extensions will it help? By the way I did not compile my own kernel, I am using Mandrake 10.1 as it is.
