Come to think of it, I ran into that little bug too. And like you, I
forgot about it but didn't report it 'cause I wasn't sure if bug or
whatever. I just copied over the kernel I wanted for future use. In
the mean time, I recompiled the kernel with my particular
customizations anyway.
Oh, about DVD burning, if I download a DVD image from the Slackware
site or torrent, do you just burn it with the same utility you would
use for CDs? In my case, I use wodim now. cdrecord turns out to be
trash onmy box now, I keep getting errors with the drive but if I use
the cdrkit package with geniso and wodim, I get fine results with CDs;
I haven tried DVDs yet.
