My fstab (using SuSE) says the same as yours, but I think you could use
either. The other ones are also the same.
I burned a few CD yesterday so mine definitely works. The only thing I see
could be wrong are your spaces around the equal sign after append. (As Bill
points out.)
Your writeup does not say that you ran lilo after step 1. I'm sure you know
it's needed.
There are CDR's that don't work well in Linux. Do you know if yours does?
