--==_Exmh_651237816P Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Chad, Wow. My old web page: http://www.best.com/~spadger/CDR-main.html gives details of how to get FreeBSD 2.2.5 & cdrecord 1.5/1.6 to build and work, and how to use it. There's a few non-obvious wrinkles from that epoch... I'd be astonished if it didn't work. Certainly did for me in 1998... (Must update that page sometime to say that none of this is necessary for a long time now :) Cheers, AS > So, I guess I'm paying the cost of not having done my research > before making a purchase.
