I'm guessing the full device path is needed (i.e., /dev/cd0c). However, consider the faq ( http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#MkInsMedia ): <faq> 4.3.1 - Making a CD-ROM You can create a CD-ROM using the cd50.iso or install50.iso files. The exact details here are left to the reader to determine with the tools they have at their disposal. In OpenBSD, you can create a CD from an ISO image using cdio(1): # cdio tao cd50.iso Most CD recorders sold for Windows and Macintosh systems come with software that can burn ISO images to blank media. If yours does not, there are various no-cost applications that can do this for you. </faq> -Neal
