You will also want to check out: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html These have some nice tips on what to do in certain situations. Lastly, for dvd+rw-tools you need atapicam; more information can be found in the second link above. -Tom
