Hi,
I just found PuppyLinux on the internet, tried it out and was amazed of the speed and the ability to save changed right to the live cd/dvd. I followed the manual to create the live dvd under a running PuppyLinux and it didn't work, no error message, the program just took 1 second to do nothing at all and said it would be finished. Then I tried using growisofs with the commands and it worked.

But the problem is, when I shut down PuppyLinux and tell it to save the session to the DVD, it tells me this:

"Rock Ridge Signatures found"

and also

"It is time to start a new DVD...".

I tried burning PuppyLinux with Ubuntu onto another DVD but I got the same results. Rock Ridge Signatures found. And I followed the instructions and did everything.

Any idead why I get this error message?

Thnx in advance for your help.

Update:
I tried it with a CD instead of a DVD and that worked.

Some additional info:

Puppy Linux: puppy-2.13-seamonkey-fulldrivers.iso

DVD Burner: HL-DT-ST_DVDRAM_GSA-4167B

I do know now why the burn2isofs program doesn't work. It's because it tries to set the speed of my dvd burner to 4 but that raise an error message.

Is there some way that I can change this, so that burn2isofs just omits setting the speed? And also to change this in whatever program is used to burn a session to the multisession dvd? It should work then.

ColonChris (if you're still around ),

If you are using Puppy 2.14, you can try burning the Puppy iso to CD or DVD with Grafburn instead of burniso2cd. Grafburn allows you to set the burning speed. I haven't used Grafburn so I don't know if it will burn a multisession CD or DVD.

Or you could burn the multisession CD or DVD on a different machine, that has a burner capable of 4x.

You could try using 2x disks. That should force burning at less than 2x. I sometimes use DVD-RW that are only 2.4x. When I save a session to one, speeds of less than 2x are often reported.
