RHBA-2004:319 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
Updated cdrtools packages for Itanium and PowerPC
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated cdrtools packages that fix CD burning on Itanium and DVD burning on
PowerPC are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.
Description
Cdrecord is an application for recording audio and data CDs. Cdrecord
works with many different brands of CD recorders, fully supports
multi-sessions, and provides human-readable error messages.
Issuing a "blank and burn" at the command line resulted in SCSI errors.
This has been fixed.
DVD burning is now possible with this version. Users who encountered
problems with dvdrecord (known on PowerPC architectures), can now use
cdrecord to burn DVDs.
All users of cdrecord should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
