Do you use mkisofs or do you burn directly to the cd. I will have to use burncd but I'm wondering what options you use. The next system I may convert to FreeBSD has a scsi cd-r burner on it. I recently created a number of coffee coasters when they wouldn't burn properly on NT. I was using a much older verison of EZ CD-Creator by Adaptec. It turned out that cd-r really didn't like the new 700MB media.
