cdrdao copy-cd --source-device=?,?,? --device=?,?,? --on-the-fly. Replace the ?,?,? with values from 'cdrecord -scanbus' You need scsi emulation for whatever drive you want to use with cdrdao It will work without problems on any decent computer... I use a K6-350 with plextor 12 speed and aopen-dvd reader. Faster writing will need more cpu, but burn-proof or whatever will compensate. -- Mark Janssen -- maniac(at)maniac.nl -- GnuPG Key Id: 357D2178 Unix / Linux, Open-Source and Internet Consultant @ SyConOS IT Maniac.nl Unix-God.Net|Org MarkJanssen.org|nl SyConOS.com|nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
