How so? I imagine there are many desktop systems (I know I've deployed some) where all the spare space is on /home, and don't leave 8GB spare in / for dual-layer DVD isos. (Or Blu-ray, or whatever). Brasero should be checking the size beforehand, checking available writable-by-user space, and doing the right thing for the user (including asking them where appropriate), not just 'failing'. How much of this it does now, I haven't checked. Bill -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
