Hello
I have been doing something similar for quite some time. However I must
point out that recording directly from the zip drive is a waste of time.
Mine is a parallel one and the speed is not enough: buffer underun all over
the place.
What I do is:
a) mount -t vfat (ext2 or whatever) /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip --- check the name
of drive please. Mine is de/sda4
b) mkisofs -J -L -R -m core -o image.iso -graft-points back_zip1/=/mnt/zip
c) eject /dev/sda4
d) cdrecord -v -dev=0,3,0 -speed=4 -multi image.iso
e) mount -t vfat /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip
f) mkisofs -J -L -R -m core -C `cdrecord -dev=0,3,0 -msinfo` -M /dev/scd0 -o
image.iso -graft-points back_zip2/=/mnt/zip
g) eject /dev/sda4
h) cdrecord -v -dev=0,3,0 -speed=4 -multi image.iso
i) Back e) with a new zip
It works for me and I am not an expert ....
Regards
Eduardo
