Like which error messages you get with what command, that makes you decide to trash them. and the question is how to make bootable CDs by using cdrecord? I've already read man cdrecord but the question is not clearer. Cdrecord (or burncd for that matter) doesn't know what bootable cd-roms are. The iso file determines if they're bootable or not. Cdrecord/burncd just tells the cd writer what bytes to burn in which sectors. man mkisofs should tell you about making an iso file bootable. -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

bootable CDs on FreeBSD-6.1-R amd64
Dear Sirs Burning CDs is becoming a coastier task to me on FBSD-6.1-R amd64. I've lost five of them...and the question is how to make bootable CDs by using cdrecord?
