Writing CD images (not under Linux)

1997-11-13 Thread Tim Bell 
I'm sorry this is slightly off-topic, but I thought someone here might
be having the same problem I've got.

I have a CD Writer which is not supported by cdwrite. So I thought
I'd make a CD image (using mkisofs), copy it to the (shudder) Windows
partition and use the supplied software (Adaptec CD Writer) to write it.
However, the Windows software refuses to write it, since it doesn't have
the proper custom header. I've tried faking the header, but with no luck
so far.

If anyone knows of any freely available Windows (or DOS) software which
will write a mkisofs-created CD image, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks,

Tim.

The list of drives is probably out-of-date, check their web site.

Golden Hawk file2cd

There is a freeware track-at-once CD-writer program for DOS systems called
file2cd. You can find it at
http://www.mainstream.net/goldenhawk/cdrom/freeware.html .

It runs on Creative CDR4210, Grundig CDR100IPW, HP 4020i and 6020i, JVC
XR-W2001/2010, Kodak PCD-600 and PCD225, Olympus CDS615E and CDS620E,
Panasonic CW7501, Philips 521, CDD2000, CDD2600, Pinnacle
RCD-1000/5020/5040, Pioneer DW-S114X, Plasmon CDR4240, Plasmon RF4100,
Ricoh MP6200S, RO-1420C, RS-1060C, Sony CDU-920S, CDU-940S, Teac
CD-R50S, Yamaha CDR100, CDR102, CDR200, and CDR400.

It is very simple to use. To write the Debian binary CD using file2cd, run:

file2cd binary.iso /postgap

The program is smart enough to find the CD-R drive and use it if there
is only one choice.
