I did compile the cdrecord 2.01a37 on my machine no later than yesterday. I was running my 2.6.8.1 kernel, and make says : GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.

Seems to be only related to the -clone option if you look at the code, and it indicates the feature has been compile : #ifdef CLONE_WRITE error("\t-clone Write disk in clone write mode.\n"); #endif Regards, Paul Paul Rolland, rol(at)as2917.net ex-AS2917 Network administrator and Peering Coordinator -- Please no HTML, I'm not a browser - Pas d'HTML, je ne suis pas un navigateur "Some people dream of success... while others wake up and work hard at it"
