Description Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller 2006-02-26 11:49:34 UTC 
When trying to burn a DVD while not having enough harddiskspace to store the temporary image I get this error message:

Reload a rewritable or blank disc

Please replace the disc in the drive with a supported disc with at least 4549 MiB free. The following disc types are supported: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW

-------
I should of course get a message saying I don't have enough space on my harddisk to store the image not being told there is a problem with my DVD drive/blank media.

Also is it impossible to write directly to disc? I think not having 4,7GB free under /tmp could be a common problem.
Comment 1 Gabor Farkas 2006-02-27 16:40:13 UTC 
about writing directly to the disk: a bugreport is open about that since 2003 (bug 113480)
Comment 2 Sebastien Bacher 2006-03-29 12:44:56 UTC 
Ubuntu bug about that: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/34951

"....
The part of the bug consisting in:

- It complains when trying to burn more than 3 gig of data (more or less)

Is not really a bug. It was just that I had not enough space where it tries to build the image. I did'nt read correctly the warning.
Anyway, it should show a dialog to choose another place with enough space, I think."

Committed to head and 2-16 should hopefully fix this.  Can anyone confirm?  Thanks.
