Please help: Burning CDI in linux...
Paul Norris
First post, so please be gentle. Maybe there are some nice Linux users
out there who can help me out.
I need a way... anyway, to get cdi burned to a CD. I have found cdirip
and can get the cdi to a wav,iso,cue combination. However from there I
am stuck. I think I might be missing some switch to create an actual .bin
file instead of that iso, however, there are no --help or man functions.
I have experimented with using cdrdao to burn those 3 onto a CD to no
avail.
If anyone has any suggestions or help it would be greatly appreciated!

You need to have some "special" tracks.
Info here:

See if this script helps. You will need to make changes for your CD
burner configuration. Please post any replies to the group. The command
line argument is the .iso file:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Burn DC CDs from files extracted from a cdi image
ISO=$1
dd if=/dev/zero bs=2352 count=300 | cdrecord speed=8 dev=0,2,0 -v -multi
-audio - || exit 1
cdrecord speed=8 dev=0,2,0 -v -multi -xa1 $ISO

Unfortunatly this setup doesn't work for me. The disk burns fine, but it
is not booting. Doesn't boot with utopia boot disk.
for follow-up info the files I have after a CDI convert are...
taudio01.wav
tdata02.iso
tdisc.cue
Thanks again!

Yes, this is correct. So, with a blank disc in the cd drive you run the
script like:
$ burndc tdata02.iso
I have had zero problems with this... although I have only burned
homebrew software (no released/unreleased games)... are you sure
cdrecord is really working? Try some other .cdi images... also, try the
DC linux distribution to make sure your CDR media is ok.
