Comment 2 for bug 83609

ok, found the solution. this isn't really a bug in k3b. i was writing to a fat32 partition. the image creation didn't complete because of the 4GB limit on fat32 files.

however, there is a bug in the fact that k3b crashes madly instead of giving an intelligible report on the problem. compare its behavior with the seemingly not user friendly dd:

dd if=/dev/hdb of=dvd.iso
File size limit exceeded (core dumped)
