I've been on a project where we setup a cd-r system on a linux box, using 'mkisofs' to create the fs (iso9660 with translations, readable from win and unix) and then 'cdrecord' to create a cdrom on a yamaha cdr-400t, no multisessions; the scripts runs periodically and check if there's enough data to create a cdrom; note that 'mkisofs' is available for many (unix) platforms, so that you can pre-create your cdrom image and simply transfer that to the cd-r unit It's realiable as far as your linux platform is reliable; we had trouble setting up properly (i.e. working) the scsi card; personally I would *not* recommend the adaptec aha-2940a In about 30 minutes (at speed 4) you can create a 600mb cdrom I'm aware of cdwriter software for Dec Unix All software retrievable from: ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord ... ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/kernel/scg ...

I recall finding a mkisofs when researching this, but requirements changed (hi Drew!), and I dropped the project before researching it further. DESCRIPTION mkisofs is effectively a pre-mastering program to generate the iso9660 filesystem - it takes a snapshot of a given directory tree, and generates a binary image which will correspond to an iso9660 filesystem when written to a block device. [snip] mkisofs is available for anonymous ftp from tsx-11.mit.edu in /pub/linux/packages/mkisofs and many other mirror sites.
