This is *intentionally* not a direct answer to your question. This is 'how you can _FIND_ answers yourself', with only a little effort. 'questions' should be your -last- resort -- not your first -- for something you haven't been able to figure out for yourself, and you *should* show some effort at having _tried_ to solve it yourself. You want a command to put files on a CDROM, right? CDROMs use an ISO-9660 filesystem, right? That gives some 'magic words' to search for -- Try "apropos '(cdrom|iso|9660)' | egrep '(1|8)' |more" And see if any commands jump out at you -- maybe something with 'create' in the description. Read the manpage, for how to build a filesystem image suitable for copying to a CD, and for a suggestion for a utility that will write the image to the disk.
