Hi all,
seems, LINUX is full of sound: Trying to write /boot/vmlinuz... to a data CD with k3b. If I drag such a file to the "Data Project" subwindow of k3b, it is identified as audio file, and the CD burning is rejected. Same with files like initramfs...
This happens at least with k3b-2.0.3-3.fc22.x86_64.
Kind regards

I don't have a write-able CD to put in my drive. But, I did the following...
1. Started k3b (same version you have) 2. Clicked on "New Data Project" 2 panes appear in the lower portion of k3b 3. Navigated to /boot 4. Dragged a vmlinuz file to the right pane Type shows as "DOS/Windows Executable" 5. Dragged a initramfs file to the right pine Type shows as "Raw disk image"
I gather you're seeing something different?

That sounds very odd. K3B will burn an audio file to a data CD no problem. Are you sure you're not trying to create an audio cd?

Perhaps because vmlinuz signature header (1byte+1nibble) is similar to MIDI format header, in case if k3b parses headers for files without extensions.

Starting k3b directly by "k3b --data /boot/vmlinuz*", then k3b marks these kernel files correctly as data files, and I can burn that data CD, so I guess it's a drag/drop problem.
Kind regards
