Re: [gentoo-user] ISO program
If you only want to put a bunch of files on a CD, then in Nautilus (if you use Gnome), go to Go-CD Creator, put the files and burn. It's really easy.

Re: [gentoo-user] ISO program
*rephrases what he said* I want to take all my CDs, and make ISOs of them, so I can place them on my server for everyone on the network to access. *thinks that sounds better* On Sun, 2004-02-15 at 15:10, Anthony Hoppe wrote: I want to make ISOs to put on my server so people on my network can mount them and stuff...w/o giving everybody copies of all the CDs lol.

On Sun, 15 Feb 2004, Jeff Smelser uttered the following immortal words, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/whatever/whatever.iso Somehow this command doesnt work for certain game cd's. One result is that the cd drive tried endlessly to read data at a sector and then gives up saying it is bad. I guess that this must be due to safe disc or some other protection. The cd isnt bad it works fine. Grendel -- Grendels annoyance filter is so advanced it puts people to the killfile even before they have posted. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] ISO program
Thanks for letting me know. So far it seems okay. I've only been doing all my non-game CDs, though. Haven't gotten to the games yet.

(from what I hear) In many countries you have the legal right to make a backup copy of CDs, so dd'ing game CDs isn't necessarily illegitemate. It's a shame that certain dishonest manufacturers ship 'CDs' that are intentionally broken and not specification-compliant. -- Ciaran McCreesh Mail:ciaranm at gentoo.org Web: http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Haven't gotten to the games yet. Sometimes you will find that a game cd will rip fine, ie you can make a ISO using the dd command. But then when you burn a cd from it and install it and try to run it, the executable complains that please insert the hitman 2 cdrom. This is because that I think the program checks to find out whether there are certain key marked sectors, or sectors written using low power. So when it cant find them it returns a error. For this type of isos to work you need to to give your users the cracked executable, x-no-cd.exe.
