Click on the USB icon on the taskbar to enable Host mode
(click on picture to see demo)
Then install
> K3B Deb <
24 mb installed
Or install it first whatever
Now that its installed, you need to connect your cdrom/dvd burner.
In order to do this I use a USB Gender Changer, A Female To Female
Click on the picture to link to Cyberguys.com. (where I bought mine)
I connect this to my 810 cable and then connect that to my USB DVD burner cable.
Start K3b from the menu under Multimedia
Notes:
Its setup to run as root, I had nothing but problems getting it to run as user.
When started it will come up and tell you your running it as root, just click close. You can also start k3bsetup, but you don't need to.
I mounted flash and backed it up to CD and DVD perfectly, on two different DVD burners. (Sony and Lite-On)
I was not able to backup the full running filesystem, from crashes to directory loops that go to memory death. Perhaps some kind of ro mount to roots?
Make sure the device is plugged in and turned on before starting K3b or it wont find the device and you will need to restart the application.
After plugging in the USB device, wait about 10 seconds for the device to settle before starting K3b
BUGS?
It finishes but cannot seem to verify, it will pop out the disk when its done and you will have to then cancel it the application. It will be at 50% complete. It works perfectly though?
Let me know what your experiences are. If you loaded my cdrom.deb or cdvd-tools.deb you would need to remove them from application manager.
Also, I never ruined one disc
It works great. Linux Rules!!!!!!!!
