Joel: thanks. The problem I anticipate is creating a directory for mkisofs to store the image file.Does knoppix have cdrecord and mkisofs on it? If so, I can tell you how I do it. Basically, like this: cdrecord -scanbus Cdrecord 1.8 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jörg Schilling Using libscg version 'schily-0.1' scsibus0: 0,0,0 0) 'SONY ' 'CD-RW CRX215E1 ' 'SYS2' Removable CD-ROMIf you get this, then the following should work: mkisofs -r -J -o /home/jlh/cdimage/TIFs /mnt/hdb/10/Prostate Where /mnt/hdb/10/Prostate is the directory with the stuff to burn and TIFs is the name of the iso9660 file to be created. Then, burn it with: cdrecord -v speed=1 dev=0,0,0 -data /home/jlh/cdimage/TIFs
The computer in question only has one HD, and AFAIK has only Win 98 occupying all available drive real estate.
Knoppix has XCDRoast, ergo the necessary support files are on board, but of course XCDRoast can't be configured because I can't write to the Knoppix CD.
(To recapitulate the problem: I'm trying to see if I can use Knoppix to rescue files from a crapped out Win 98 install by burning them to a CD)
