But after the burn I still only see the first session > that I burnt. > you first have to create an iso image with mkisofs $ mkiso -o image.iso -J -R <directory of files> this will create image.iso with the directory you specified as the root directory of the image file. the J option is for Joliet extensions and R is for Rock-Ridge extendsion enabled now to burn that you do: $ cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 speed=4 -data -multi image.iso to write the image.iso, ofcourse you need to specify your dev parameters now to do a add a session to that cd you need to get the start and end sector of the previous session on the cd like this: $ cdrecord dev=0,0,0 -msinfo this will return something like 0,51635 this gives the start and end point of the previous session. first create the iso image to append to cd like this: $ mkisofs -o image2.iso -R -J -C 0,51635 -M 0,0,0 <directory> with the -C switch you enter the numbers return by the -msinfo option of cdrecord the -M switch tells mkisofs to merge this image with the image found on dev 0,0,0 and then you ready to burn that image to the cd like this: $ cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 speed=4 -data -multi image2.iso and that is it, now if i remeber everything right this should work just check with the man pages. hope this helps adriaan
