Hi, after doing a fresh FC2 installation i can't write to dvd-ram anymore :( which wasn't a problem with FC1 and a 2.6 kernel. When i try to mount a already formated disc i get "mount: block device /dev/hdc ist read only..." and trying to format (mke2fs -b 2048 /dev/hdc) a new disc gets me "/dev/hdc: filesystem is only readonly while creating the superblock" (don't know if this is the correct translation from the german message). I tried it with my normal user and the root user and /dev/hdc without ide-scsi should work. i changed brw------- 1 felix disk 22, 0 23. Feb 22:02 /dev/hdc to brw-rw-rw- 1 root disk 3, 0 23. Feb 22:02 /dev/hdc with no luck xcdroast + k3b are working and writing dvds Drive LG4040B Kernel 2.6.7-1.456_4.rhfc2.at Hope somebody has an idea for me... Cu Felix
