Configuring Gnometoaster for your System
Preferences
This is the trickiest part of the software, but is as straightforward as is possible, considering the complexity of what is
actually going on behind the scenes. The good news is, for the most part, you can ignore most of the settings in Gnometoaster, and just take the defaults. We do however, have a few things to change:
- Temp Directory Dialog
This is the directory where Gnometoaster puts its temp files. There should be at least 700MB free in this directory. For an example, I use /mnt/gtoast/tmp
- CDLayout Dialog
Gnometoaster requires two directories to be created. The first is a
virtual layout directory, where
Gnometoaster keeps its "Internal Filesystem" I have it set up on my system
to be /mnt/gtoast/cdrfs
(Make this directory before you tell Gnometoaster to look there)
- CD-ROM Setup
This is the link to where your CD-ROM is, you wrote it down when you looked at dmesg (mine is /dev/sr0
on ID 0,0,0)
- CD-R Setup
This is the link to where your CD-R is, you wrote it down when you looked at dmesg (mine is /dev/sr1 on
ID 0,1,0)
- Sound Setup
This is a new entry. It is for the preview functions of Gnometoaster. The safe bet would be to set this to
Open Sound System, but you can try Enlightenment Sound Demon if you're brave. If you're not going to
be using the preview function, you can ignore this section.
Okay. At this point, your preferences should be saved. Now, on to actually using Gnometoaster.
