Data on CDs is written in blocks of 2 kB. By default dd reads 512 bytes at a time, and the CD driver doesn't support this. It would work if you use bs=2k. For the sake of efficiency, however, you should select a larger block size, say 64 kB: dd if=/dev/dvd of=/home/user/cd.iso bs=64k
I have tried it with bs=2k and bs=64, but it does not work. The image has only 648MB. The working image, created with WinIso, has 743MB. It seems that dd can not read all sectors of a Mode 2 CD. Any idea?
