Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, sorry for once again asking here, but after much searching I failed to find any help on this anywhere else again. I am able to burn CD-Rs with burncd, but now need to make a copy of an existing CD. What is the easiest way to simply create an image of the disc? I have tried the following: [sdt]# dd if=/dev/acd1c of=image.raw dd: /dev/acd1c: Bad address 0+0 records in 0+0 records out but as you see this didn't work. I would like to avoid using mkisofs on the directory structure, ideally I'd like to be able to create images of bootable CDs etc. Thanks again in advance, -- Stefanus Du Toit * WorldForger * Unix Hacker * Open Source Fanatic mailto:sdt@gmx.net * http://www.worldforge.org/ * http://ultracool.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
