Creating a CD

Burn .iso onto a CD (using mkcd)

To write cd_image.iso onto the disk use

     mkcd cd_image.iso

mkcd is my script. It uses wodim. To get wodim:

      sudo apt-get install wodim

Burn .iso onto a CD (using wodim)

• Insert blank disk
• run

       wodim --devices

  This shows the available devices and the dev='/dev/...' to use
• To write cd_image.iso onto the disk use

       wodim dev='/dev/...' -v -data cd_image.iso

To get wodim:

      sudo apt-get install wodim

Burn CD's (OLD - using cdrecord)

You can burn a cd with the following command:

• mkcd <file>.iso

If you do not have the mkcd command or it does not work, you can use:

• cdrecord -v -eject dev=0,0,0 speed=4 <file>.iso
