Other Help Topics :: Burning CD using dsl tools



I'm waiting anxiously new 0.80 but I've broken main HD boot partition and I have no a big disk where install Knoppix or so for burning new dsl's version so I'm guessing how to use the dsl's tools for do that (burn-bash isn't it?) When I had mi HD I used Knoppix cd burning tool (do not remember its name) or win95 easy cd creator Now I only have an old 4Gb disk with 3.Gb  for saving dsl extensions and stuff and 2 very little partition one for dsl image and the other for swapping I loved Knoppix tool because it was as easy as easy-cd-creator was  and working under linux never loose a copy (I can not said same of burning under win95 or later :-(   )
So if somebody know how to use burn-bash...will be wellcome!
Tks!
okey odokey first thing you do  open an xterm,
type cdrecord scanbus
this gives you the address of you cdwriter usually something like 0,0,0 and a description of you cdwriter
then you type
cdrecord ( followed by the address of your writer) ( path/to /your/iso/image)
e.g
cdrecord 0,0,0 /home/dsl/dsl-0.7.3.iso

That's all? wow..it seems very easy
Must be root?
I ussually use RW CD any command to erase an old CD? if not I'll use a new one don't bother but if I can learn how to reuse will be better if do not I'll use a new one!
:-) Tks!
there is a command for blanking but not at dsl pc cant remember, the above was from memory........
so there may be an additional command needed
try cdrecord --help........
may give you a list of options and  variables to try...
or you could get gcombust from the repository for a graphical interface.......
