Cdrecord requires atapicam or a SCSI burner, btw. (And to think that for years I was SCSI-*only*. Darn!) What is "aptapicam" exactly? If I add it to my kernel GENERIC will other things blow up, [:-)]? I've been going to<->fro with this whole tthing... BSD is basically a hard-core geek operating system. for servers, like my DNS server; it doen't make the best "desktop" OS. ...Still, it'd be nice to be able to burn the few CD's that I *do* copy on tao.

The handbook has examples of how-to copy audio CD's doing the reads with dd.
