Hello, This is a very common question that gets ask a lot. The nice people in the debian doc project decided to create a FAQ on debian CD's. http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/ there's a section entitled "How do I record a CD-R under foo?" i.e. foo = platform http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-unix http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-windows http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-mac
