On my system, in the same condition, nautilus just says "unknown error while creating the image" however, apart from the fact that it should burn on-the-fly IMHO, it should at least evaluate free space available before attempting to create the iso, letting the user wait etc., and in case there's not enough space, ask the user where to save the image.
Done this way, and I think this is a serious usability bug, to anybody not experienced with gconf-editor (which I launched just to check if there is a "image directory" option), it looks like nautilus does not *NEED* an image directory (I don't expect ANY program to create a 4gb file in my system before asking me first) when burning. If it needs, the user should be informed. I know, this would break the outstanding simplicity of the burning process a little, but why promising what we don't deliver? I repeat, when I first pressed the "write cd" button, I really didn't realize it was going to write a temporary image somewhere! And I am an experienced user, so when I saw "error writing image" I wondered "eck, does it really WRITE an image somewhere?" then launched gconf-editor and modified the setting - I don't expect my mother to understand what's going on at all in the same situation. -- Wrong behavior after 'not enough space on hard drive' error https://launchpad.net/bugs/59054 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
