Problems with DVD upgrade

[gboyce at badbelly.com (gboyce)]

Jay,

That message is normal when you attempt to mount blank media.  While 
/etc/fstab is configured not to mount the disk on entry gnome or kde might 
be handling the mounting automatically.

This message should not actually cause a problem with trying to burn a 
dvd.  Can you give some information on what happens when you try to burn 
the DVD itself?
