Now that _is_ cool. I'll play with it now. I presume that in a pipe jigdo will then not attempt to checksum the image? >I'd be interested in knowing whether this works - I've never tried it >myself. It might be necessary to use "bfr" inbetween jigdo-file and >cdrecord for some additional buffering. And thanks for mentioning bfr too - it's a tool I've seen a need for for some time, but never spent the effort to write it. On a machine with 512MB of memory, it would be useful to tell the system to use half of RAM for buffering CD writes at 24x... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
