The only common task for which I have not found a FreeBSD equivalent is creating an ISO 9660 image from a CD-ROM. Under Linux, I could do something like this: dd if=/dev/scd0 of=/data/images/new-image.iso Once this is done, I can either record the image to a blank CD, or mount it as a vnode disk that can be NFS exported or shared via SAMBA. I've grep'ed the FAQ's and the handbook, but couldn't find anything about this. If you have a pointer, I'd be grateful if you could pass it along.
