Yes, I have a shell script I generally use for the job. First, I'll explain a bit though. I place all the mp3's or whatever under a particular directory node name; within this directory, you can have whatever subdirs you want but I put everything to be burned into a single directory to work from. Then I use the attached shell script and use both options. First, I create the ISO image and then I burn the ISO image to disk with the other option and the script uses cdrecord to build this. So far, all my CD's work with this script which simplifys things. I plan to enlarge upon it but it does quite a bit for me right now. ----- Beginning of script ----- #!/bin/sh # General purpose CD burner script using crecord and mkisofs make_iso1() { echo echo -n "Enter name of directory to copy files from: " read -e INPUT echo -n "Enter name of ISO file image: " read -e ISOFILE echo -n "Enter volume label: " read -e VOLID mkisofs -v -r -J -V $VOLID -o $ISOFILE $INPUT } write_data1() { echo -n "Enter name of ISO file: " read -e ISOFILE cdrecord -v -data $ISOFILE } # Main portion CHOICE="" while [ "$CHOICE" = "" ] ; do clear echo "CD Burner Main Menu" echo "" echo "1 - Build ISO image for single session CD" echo "2 - Burn a single session data CD" echo "X - Exit" echo "" echo -n "Enter choice: " read CHOICE case "$CHOICE" in 1) make_iso1 ;; 2) write_data1 ;; x) echo "" echo "Exitting CD burner script!" exit 0 ;; esac done ----- End of script ----- On Mon, Aug 11, 2003 at 06:23:09AM -0400, Charles Crawford wrote: > Is there an easy command line argument to burn a cluster of files?
