Hello,
I've got two questions on burning cdr/cdrw disks. I'm using freebsd 5.4-p6 
and using cdrtools for cdr/rw and dvd+rw-tools for dvdr/rw burning.
    My first question has to do with multisession disk burning, burn some, 
take it out, go back later and write more to the disk until it's full. I've 
not been able to make this work with either cd's or dvd's and would 
appreciate a tutorial or howto on multisession burning.
    My second question regards burning a windows xp disk under bsd. I've got 
one, a vanilla xp pro disk and i want to slipstream it. I copy the files 
from the disk to my windows hard disk, slipstream them with servicepack two 
plus some additional hardware drivers, now i've got an xpsp2+drivers 
installation tree. I copy that over to a network share, log on to my bsd 
machine, and i have no idea on how to use mkisofs to make a bootable iso to 
burn to disk. I've tried just making an iso of the installtree and burning 
that with cdrecord, made some coasters that's about it. My goal is to have a 
bootable disk thag acts just like the original vanilla xp disk, boots right 
in to the install and so forth.
    Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.
