From: "Gerry Doris"
I just installed one of the new Plextor 12-10-32 CD writers and got it working under linux. It's trival to write iso images using cdrecord in command line mode. If you've been using xcdroast then you have cdrecord installed since xcdroast is just a gui for it.
The command to write an iso image is just:
cdrecord -v speed=12 dev=0,0 image.iso
speed is whatever your writer will do when creating CD-R's dev is the scsi of your writer (mine is really an EIDE but thinks it's a scsi device at 0,0). You get this from "cdrecord -scanbus"
Presto, you have a nice fresh CD-R with the iso tree broken out.
However, I have been completely unable to write iso images from xcdroast. No matter what I try I always get one large file on the CD-R that is the iso image (not the tree but the exact iso image file).
It's not a big deal but I would like to know how to do it???

Hi Gerry I've done this simply by removing the file's .iso extention and replacing it with a .raw extention, placing it in it's own directory and pointing XCDroast in the right direction. Seems to work quite well.
