I'm not a very good source for this info as I'm a Linux, command-line
kinda guy - I just use cdrecord ;^). The trick is, regardless of what
software you use, to just make a direct copy of the ISO image to CD -
don't try to mount the image in the host filesystem or anything like that.
In Linux, I use:
cdrecord -v -speed=2 dev=1,0,0 -eject -data /smbshares/imac/test-install.iso
-v is verbose output
-speed would be determined by your burner's capability
-dev can be derived by running cdrecord -scanbus
-eject just ejects it when it's done
-data is actually the default for a .iso extension
and the path at the end is an ISO image on my filesystem
I think Phil's FAQ listed below mentions how to burn in MacOS. Any
Windows folks out there want to mention their proven technique?
