You must have hardware problems. XP is rock solid. Seriously, this is a Fedora list but still..What exactly are you developing that crashes XP so much? I bet it crashes or hangs most distros too, if you bring those skills. What does a P4 have to do with stability? Really strange post.

The main problem I see is the lack of documentation. For instance I am now in the process of to set up cdrecord for my new DVD-RW drive. Under FC2 cdrecord-2.01-0a27.3 is said to "include patches to include the ProDVD" capabilities. Great. However Xcdroast refuses to acknowledge the existance of the /dev/dvd device, and I can't find any info on how to implement the system.
