Notable in this release is an option to create bootable .iso files (CD images) suitable for burning to a CD.
NOTE:
These .iso images are created using the "no floppy emulation" option, so you'll need a reasonably recent BIOS to boot from a CD burned from them. Make sure to set your BIOS to include CDROM in the boot order!
To burn a CD-R from a command line, you would need to do something like:
$ sudo bash
(you may need superuser status to write to the CD writer)
then:
# cdrecord -scanbus
This will tell you what devices you have on your system that are capable of writing CDs, and more importantly, their device IDs. The output will look something like this:
Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 J?rg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.24
Using libscg version 'schily-0.5'
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'TDK ' 'CDRW5200B ' '67U2' Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1) *
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
Now you can supply the correct device to the cdrecord command:
# cdrecord -v -eject speed=4 dev=0,0,0 eb-5.3.5-mc1-3c905c-tpo.iso
which will write the CD and eject it. For more help on cdrecord, check out the man page, or do a quick Google for "cdrecord burn iso howto" or something like that.
Now, I'm sure there are many other ways to do this, so if you prefer toast or xcdroast or nero, then by all means please use that.
