So don't use Xcdroast. Command line is much easier
anyway. To do it in one shot... i.e., if you don't have
to worry about (fifo) buffer underrun,
# mkisofs -R /dir-to-burn | cdrecord -v fs=6m speed=2 dev=0,0 -
If you think you might not have enough system resources
to mkisofs and cdrecord at the same time, do mkisofs first
and then cdrecord it.
Obviously, you want to check the man pages of each to
insure the flags I use will work with what you're using.
I'm assuming here that you've already been able to
write to your cdrw under Linux... that you've gone
through and done all the scsi-ide stuff that needs to
be done. I seem to recall that the docs that came
with Xcdroast were pretty good in that regard.
(notice I don't use Xcdroast either... ;-)
