I did set it to write to the DVD. The tarball is about 4Gbs or so. It

I don't think that file will fit on a CD. LOL
As this is an extension to what the basic compatibility mode allows, you of
course need to _allow_ mkisofs to write files larger than 4 GB.
See the mkisofs man page ------> you need iso-level 3 or 4.

I did try level 3 and still no joy. Also tried UDF or something and no joy.
I got Kbackup to make 1Gb tarballs and it still does not burn. I got
something like this:
umount: /media/hdd is not in the fstab
So, I added it to fstab and it is burning away. I will try large files
next and see just how big I can get. Plan to try the 4Gb sucker just
out of curiosity if nothing else.
I thought you didn't need fstab entries for CD/DVD stuff? O_O
Thanks for the help tho. Learned something new.
