"Cdwrite"

Cdwrite is in a free Debian package. Most development of late seems to
be happening to a program called "cdrecord", which might eventually
replace "cdwrite". It works on drives from Yamaha, Philips, Kodak,
IMS, and HP.  I use "cdwrite" on my Yamaha 4X writer with no problem.
The flags I give it are:

    cdwrite \
    --eject \
    --verbose \
    --speed 4 \
    --device /dev/sg0 \
    --yamaha \
    /mnt/binary.iso



CDRecord

Can someone please provide us instructions for using "cdrecord"?



"Easy CD"

The non-PRO version of Easy CD doesn't work with ISO 9660 image files
at all, and is thus useless for writing the Debian Official CDs. If you
are purchasing a drive that comes with "Easy CD", you can ask for an
upgrade to "Easy CD PRO", or you can use one of the other programs
listed here, including free ones like "file2cd", "cdwrite", or
"cdrecord".



Easy CD PRO

Select the "file" menu.
Select "new"
Select "new CD from image".
Enter the name of the ISO image file (in this case binary.iso or source.iso)

You will know if everything was done correctly up until this point if it
acknowledges the ISO file and does not say that the ISO file is raw data.

Select the "mode 1" and "disk at once" options.

Write the CD.

GEAR

Select `External Image' from the menu.
Select `CD-ROM Data, 2048 bytes/sector' as the image type
Select the image file.
Write the CD.

Golden Hawk file2cd

There is a "freeware" track-at-once CD-writer program for DOS systems called
"file2cd". You can find it at
http://www.mainstream.net/goldenhawk/cdrom/freeware.html .

It runs on Creative CDR4210, Grundig CDR100IPW, HP 4020i and 6020i, JVC
XR-W2001/2010, Kodak PCD-600 and PCD225, Olympus CDS615E and CDS620E,
Panasonic CW7501, Philips 521, CDD2000, CDD2600, Pinnacle
RCD-1000/5020/5040, Pioneer DW-S114X, Plasmon CDR4240, Plasmon RF4100,
Ricoh MP6200S, RO-1420C, RS-1060C, Sony CDU-920S, CDU-940S, Teac
CD-R50S, Yamaha CDR100, CDR102, CDR200, and CDR400.

It is very simple to use. To write the Debian binary CD using file2cd, run:

	file2cd binary.iso /postgap

The program is smart enough to find the CD-R drive and use it if there
is only one choice.
