ok, i don't use xcdroast, but I think it may use cdrecord as its backend. I am guessing since it is a gui frontend, there should be some option to do "disc at once". I will maybe try to install it later and check. I personally like using cdrecord ( command line utility to burn ).

The usage is really easy.
here is a good link
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html

Also, as always, there is some info over at etree.org
http://www.etree.org/linux.html

take a look at those two things and you should be ok. Feel free to IM me ( mmaniaci17 ) if you have trouble....also, i will see if I can get the xcdroast installed, and figure it out.

:)


ohh yeah, for the impatient to burn using cdrecord:
if you already have the tracks converted to wav ( use the unshn script, i think it is on the etree.org site ), put all the tracks in one directory...then run this command cdrecord -v -pad -dao speed=X dev=A,B,C *.wav

where X is the speed of your burner
and A,B,C is the location of your burner ( can find this out using cdrecord -scanbus ) *notice the -dao, that is for disc at once, no gaps between songs :D

Thanks for the help and links momo turns out to be a problem with my drive and its firmware. Downloaded cdrdao which I found off the etree site (of course). Thanks again
