Burning ISO images?

Steve:
I last used CD Creator about a year ago, so my recollection will be hazy
on the details. I can tell you that it will create a CDR from an ISO
image, because I did that. I also created an ISO image using this
application.
If memory serves, simply give it the .sio file as it's object and it
should create a working CDR, as opposed to burning [filename].iso as a
file onto the media. But, there may be a flag setting involved. Look under
Files in the toolbar.
Frankly, if ytou've got linux working, dump Easy CD Creator. The command
line linux program cdrecord is far, far easier to use. You would do it
something like this in linux:
cdrecord -v -speed=2 dev=0,0,0 slackware.iso
The filename may be different, your scsi device may be different (do
cdrecord -scanbus to find out where it is), and it may support speeds
faster than 2--but this should give you the general idea. After all the
posts on how the heck to use Easy CD Creator that constantly choke the
various blind Windows users' lists, this should look refreshing, imho.
