FC 8 i386 I want to upgrade my Laptop, and I want to burn /home/user folder on to a DVD to save. But using K3B if I do a burn of /home/user folder, it will burn contents of /home/user, but it won't burn files or sub directories in folders in /home/user WHY ??

is 'user' a regular directory you created, or is it a link?
in lower section of k3b, are you clicking 'new data dvd project' to open 'current projects'?
when you say '/home/user', are you dragging '/home/' or just 'user'?
when you drag to 'current projects', what prompt do you get after you drop? - -- peace out.

Once a K3B operation I was attempting just stopped
It was because somehow in my home directory I had a file owned by root
and of course I had no right to read. I fixed the problem and the
operation succeeded!

this is true.
in op's case, he would have to have *all* files owned by root. which could be possible. - -- peace out.
