You're right. It didn't work. I managed to get it working with another (windows) program. There was a protection program on the CD that it managed to circumvent. I don't make a habit of this. Tom On Sat, 2003-12-27 at 16:03, George Auch wrote:

I'm trying to copy a CD of a game so that I can play it at my office with someone else over our network. The game needs CD#2 in to play.
I can't seem to read the CD with K3b or XCDRoast. I get an error that says it can't read a track, but the game plays fine. I'm sure this is a protection thing.
Anyone know how to get around this?

With the CD not mounted, try using dd
dd if=/dev/name of=cd2.iso
then burn it with cdrecord
The dd command takes a while as it reads the entire cd, my guess is, if there is a protection scheme dd may fail quickly. (like on a protected movie DVD).
See what happens with dd / it might work.
