I had tried earlier to get dd to copy directly without luck. dd if=/dev/sr0 of=cdimage or dd if=/dev/scd0 of=cdimage But that results in: Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: SCSI cdrom error : host 0 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 return code = 28000000 Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: ILI Current sd0b:00: sense key Illegal Request Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: Additional sense indicates Illegal mode for this track Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 0 Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: SCSI cdrom error : host 0 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 return code = 28000000 Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: ILI Current sd0b:00: sense key Illegal Request Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: Additional sense indicates Illegal mode for this track Nov 25 12:29:14 laptop kernel: I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 4 But I'm able to use cdrdao and cdparanoia to rip from that device without problem. Anyone else able to copy a cd image to disk? Again, my goal is not to rip a CD image so I can play it. Rather the goal is to "burn" with cdrdao to a file where I can then pre-view it (specifically after making changes to the TOC sheet cdrdao uses to build the CDR). This is also on a machine that's not running X so I can't use a graphical track editor program to preview TOC changes. Using dd to save the image to disk is just a good test to see if I can then mount the disk image on a loopback device and play it with something like cdplay. Getting cdrdao to write to a disk image is another issue. I don't know much about the audio cd format, but it would need to write the TOC and the raw audio data to the disk file, I believe.
