ISO image tricks

June 9th, 2004 | by jg3 |

Making an .iso of an existing CD is easy using ‘dd’

box% dd if=/dev/acd0 of=/data/cooldisc.iso bs=2048

then you can mount that file directly if you make a
‘memory disk’ for it:

box# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /data/cooldisc.iso -u 0
box# mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /mnt

and finally, burning to an ATAPI drive is:

box# burncd -s max -f /dev/acd0 data /data/cooldisc.iso fixate
