OH! I thought you were trying to create an audio CD. Now I see what you are trying to do is to create a data CD containing mp3 audio files. If you recheck examples given at the end of the cdrecord man pages, note that mkisofs does not need to specify an output file, because the output goes to the standard output which is passed to cdrecord by the pipe. If $FILE is the directory where your mp3 files are under, the you should try: mkisofs $FILE | cdrecord -v fs=6m speed=4 dev=0,6,0 It is the same as the example given by man cdrecord: mkisofs â??R /master/tree | cdrecord speed=2 dev=2,0 tsize=XXX In this case, FILE=/master/tree GZS.
