dd or cat (the most useful useless command ever). But you may simply give growisofs the file address as source. Like in my first proposal : growisofs ... -Z /dev/sr0=/home/any.iso & That would produce the same mess of messages as "tee >(...)". Therefore i proposed xterm -e 'growisofs ... -Z /dev/sr0=bufferfile ; echo done ; sleep 86400' & which starts an xterm for each DVD writer process, reports "done" afterwards and waits at most one day for you to kill the window - after you had a look at the outcome. After those 86400 seconds, the window kills itself. > 2.) obviously I am replacing "/dev/srX" above with my appropriate device > names... is there anything else above that I may need ot adjust per my > distro or configuration? The "...", of course. :)) My growisofs options for writing via /dev/sr0=/proc/self/fd/0 are -use-the-force-luke -dvd-compat and eventually -speed=1 With mkisofs i use -J -joliet-long -l -allow-leading-dots -R -D -graft-points and -path-list $file_list_address since i possibly got a lot of file addresses for mkisofs. Not to forget at least one "pathspec" because with -path-list alone, mkisofs won't run. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
