Hi...
There are a lot of variables, but this should put you pretty close...
1. Become the root user. At the command prompt, type "su" and then your root
password.
2. At the root command prompt, type:
cdrecord -scanbus
This should return something that looks a bit like so:
Cdrecord 1.9 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 2.1.39
Using libscg version 'schily-0.1'
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'HP ' 'CD-Writer+ 8100 ' '1.0g' Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1) *
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
The name of your CD burner may be different or it may be at a different
address on the bus. That's fine -- just note the three numbers in the
leftmost column beside your CD burner. (In my case, it's "0,0,0".)
3. Put a blank CDR into your drive. Go into the directory in which you saved
your .iso file and type the following (inserting the actual filename):
cdrecord -v -dummy dev=0,0,0 [filename].iso
This is a test burn. It won't actually write to the disk, but it will tell
you if you're likely to have any problems. Assuming you don't...
4. Type:
cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 [filename].iso
That's it! Good luck...
