    Does anyone know how to to burn multisession CD. I've added the files to be burned into the window and pressed the burn icon.  A shell window opens showing that something is happening and the seems to finish but nothing is actually burned onto the CD. Also, the dummy button is off.

      Is there any error message ? what the output in the log message ? it's difficult to say anything without any further information ...

        The last few lines are:
        cdrecord: Bad driver opts 'burnproof'
        Driver Options
        None supported for this drive.

          ok, my fault, I will make burnproof support optional ... I thought cdrecord would just ignore it if it isn't available

          ok, this should be fixed in 2.0.11-0.6

            Thanks, that last version fixed the burnproof problem but there is still another problem.  When making multisession CD's eroaster burns the files onto the cd but then I can't read the Cd.  The message is:
                "Could not mount filetype /dev/scd0: No such file or directory. I could not determine the file system type."
            I could see that the files are burned into the Cd by looking at the disk however.

              Hmm does happen with all CD or just with multisession CDs ? I just had a look at the cdrecord man page again and added -waiti to the commandline I use (this seems to be required) it'll be included in the next snapshot, but I have to test this.

                With the latest version nothing happens at all.
                Here are the error messages:
                    Waiting for reader to process the input fill buffer- cdrecord. Premature EOF on stdin
                cdrecord: Input buffer error, aborting.

                  Version 8 writes to the disk again but my cdrom still can't read the file system.

                    Hmm, do you use RWs ? Have you tried to blank the CD first (completely, not just minimal) ?

                    Another thing, is the "fixed" checkbox checked ? Every session has to be fixated, otherwise it won't work.

      I got it! You were right, I didn't have the fixate CD button. I mistakenly though that would close off the CD from adding any more sessions. Thanks again for taking the time in helping me find the problem. Very well appreciated.
