First thanks for the previous help that several of you provided. Since I have been sort of thinking along these lines I could have sworn that I had saved a set of e-mail that told how to make a CD using the dd comand but all I could find in my repository was a procedure for making an ISO from a CD.
Any after the latest crash - crash in this case meaning refusing to boot - of my MS clunker it has the idea of copying a certain set files to disk became desirable but mot critical. Anyway I tried to execute dd if=/home/trunk/file_name of=/dev/cdrom1 and a few variation of this on my Linux box as a test without success to see if I could make a CD from a set of files. Usage of a program like CDRoast is not a feasibility as the linux distribution I an using is on one floppie. Any advice on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.
