Dear All

Does somebody know how to copy a CD to another one
with only one
burner and using the command line, say, cdrecord?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

If the cd is a data cd, first unmount it either
through gnome-mount -u /dev/hdc or as root
# umount /media/NAMEOFVOLUME
then proceed to
# readcd dev=/dev/hdc f=anythingyouwant.iso
then burn with
# cdrecord -v -dao dev=/dev/hdc
driveropts=burnproof(*if your burner supports it)
-eject(*to eject when done) anythingyouwant.iso

if the cd is an audio cd,
# cdda2wav -vall dev=/dev/hdc -B
when that is done eject the cd and do
# cdrecord -v -dao dev=/dev/hdc -useinfo -audio
driveropts=burnproof -eject *.wav

and that should do it. Move along the parameters as
needed as your burner might not have burnproof
enabled.

-v - verify
-dao - disk at once
-useinfo - preserve gap size for audio tracks
-eject - to eject cd when burn is complete.

# man cdrecord
can help to better understand the process.

Regards,

Antonio
