BurnCD works well with atapi cdrw's. There are few reports of drives that do not work. (In fact, I've yet to have one reported.)
If google hasn't come up with a recent flat no, then give it a shot, and maybe post a yes when done. To make it work, standard install.system, skim man burncd, install /usr/ports/sysutils/mkisofs & read man mkisofs and start burning! --- erk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > searches on google haven't turned up much, other than linux-oriented > changes. most of them note something about scsi-adapter emulation, > though.. does freebsd have support for something like this, or could > i possibly create a symlink from a scsi device to something like > acd0c or acd1c? NO. No scsi device emulation should be done.
