Re: Burning CD's

Thanks for the help!

How would I make burn a CD with a copy of a "directory tree", like /fred and
everything under it?  Do I *have* to make a .iso first?

dd if=/dev/sr1 of=blah.iso

(create an image of the cd (/dev/sr1) you wish to copy)

(as you can see my cdr is on 0,0,0)

cdrecord speed=8 dev=0,0,0 -eject blah.iso

(this burns the ISO9660 image blah.iso to the cd at 8X write and ejects
it when finished)

cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=0,0,0 -eject blah.iso

(this gives more information during the burning, but is more resource
intensive)

There are obviously other ways of doing so, but this is probably a good
start.
