How do I burn an .ISO image in KDE?

[snjbrian]

I am running Suse 9.3 with no extra apps installed yet except Acronis True Image Server for Linux. Basically, just the default programs. I do have a copy of Nero for Linux too but not installed.

I burned a CD easily with the default KDE burner program but I could not figure out how to burn an ISO image in my Acronis folder for rescue boot recovery to restore my hard drive image.

How do you/can you burn an .iso image?

[dylunio]

you open up K3B and then you have a selection of ways to burn in a lower window, if burn image to cd isn't there right click on the window's background and the option should be there

WOW...it was right there all along. I thought that was just a menu display window. I did not realize it offered context menu ability. NEAT.

Thanks. I found it.

Open Konqueror and click/double click (depending on how you have the mouse setup) on the iso file, k3b will perform a md5 sum check on the iso, select ok to burn, and then close once the burn is complete.

WOW...check that stuff out! That was really sweet! Thanks for that tip Londo!

Very sweet indeed!

I used to run xcdroast and really hated k3b when it first came out, but with improvements, it quickly became my favorite cd burning application.
