Description Scott Bronson 2004-12-06 22:29:22 UTC 
n-c-b requires you to use the system's /tmp directory to hold the image to be
written.  But who has a 4.4 GB tmp partition??  (Or 8.8 for double-sided DVDs!)
 This makes it extremely difficult to use n-c-b to burn DVDs (break out gparted,
fdisk, etc...)

n-c-b should allow the user to specify the temporary directory to use.  Even if
it's a gconf key instead of an actual UI element, anything would help.  It seems
rather silly that I have 40 GB free on my main partition, yet I can't burn DVDs...

This was fixed a long time ago, dig in your GConf settings ;)

You're right.  Thanks!  Sorry for the noise.
