Ronneil,

If you have xcdroast (mine is xcdroast 0.96ex), first
create an iso9660 image using the Master CD button. 
But before you do that, you have to create a directory
and/or a directory tree of the __files__ you want to
be included in the raw CD image.  As much as possible,
do not include symlinks and do not exceed more than
the capacity of your CD-R (typically 650 MB).

Anyway, xcdroast will give you a choice to preview
size before creating a CD-R from the raw image.
Highlight and point to your top directory on the
"Directory with data to master" panel on the "Master
From-to" screen.

>From the "Master From-To" panel, use "Set Image-Type"
and optionally, use "Set ISO-Header". Setting the
correct image type is important depending on what kind
of CD-R you are burning and what OS will be using it.

Make sure you enable Rock Ridge and Joliet extensions
if you want **both** Unix/Linux and Windows OS'es to
read your CD-R.  If you're sure your CD-R is only for
Windows, I've found out enabling "create
TRANS.TBL-files" makes it unreadable for Windows.  As
Ian said, xcdroast is just a GUI front-end to Linux
command-line programs mkisofs and cdrecord.  If you
want to create Macintosh HFS CD-R's, there is
mkhybrid.

Good luck.

Rene
