One thing to note is that with older kernel versions the block size must be larger than the sector size, so a block size of 4k is needed. dd if=/dev/zero bs=1m count=650 of=image.iso mke2fs -b 4096 image.iso mount -o loop image.iso /mnt cp my_files /mnt/subdir umount /mnt cdrecord -pad dev=b,d,l speed=xx image.iso As noted, e2fs is not optimal for a CD! -- rob bogus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
