I am running VL 5.8 standard gold, and I want to dual boot with DSL. (Damn Small Linux)(I'm new to Linux and I am Experimenting...) However, when I try to burn the DSL 4.0 ISO image with gravedigger, the percentage bars (percent done burning) come up, but never move. Then, after a while, the program closes. All of this time, the green light (indicates that information is being read) is on, but never the red one (indicating information is being written). I'm using a "MSI CD-RW MS-8348", according to graveman (it does say MSI on the drive). I've tried updating everything I could find under gslapt that indicates that it is for cd-writing (I could have missed some), but no change...
UPDATE: I think I may have gotten to the core of the problem...
I tried to burn a CD in terminal by typing the following...
cdrecord -v speed=16 dev=2,0,0 /buffer/mycd.iso
After typing that in, Linux spews out the following, REPEATEDLY (wow, it was very annoying...)
cdrecord: No such device or address. Cannot send SCSI cmd via ioctl
I DONT HAVE AN SCSI DEVICE!!!!!
srry, i'm kinda aggravated right now...
:END UPDATE
Also, ever since I've installed VL, I had no sound from my speakers. I've checked all of the connections, volume, and everything. It looks as though Linux recognizes the fact that there is a sound card, but it doesn't work...
UPDATE:Sound is working now...
the speakers I was tryingto use were broken...

Bought new ones...
:END UPDATE
Help, please?
Thanks in advance.
