[newbie] Writing .iso file to CD
Hi all, This sounds like a daft question... but how do I write an .iso file to a cdr using cdrecord?

Re: [newbie] Writing .iso file to CD
...unless I just make an iso of the iso, so that only one of them gets 'unwrapped'. Note to self: Think before posting.

Re: [newbie] Writing .iso file to CD
That command would write the contents of the .iso - which is what is usually wanted, but not this time.

Re: [newbie] Writing .iso file to CD
I'm astonished. Don't you know your role as a linux guru demands you push the command line alternative at all times? BTW, what do you think of iso'ing the iso? Feels like a hack (in a bad sense), but I can't see how else to do it.
