SECOND -- Find your burner. Mine above is device 1,0,0
THIRD -- Change to the directory containing the iso files
[rj at mavis rj]$ cd /tmp/FC3/FC3-test2-binary-i386
[rj at mavis FC3-test2-binary-i386]$
FOURTH -- burn a CD
[rj at mavis FC3-test2-binary-i386]$ cdrecord dev=1,0,0 -v -dao *disc1.iso
NOTE -- I'm burning CD #1 of the FC3t2 set above. Your path will
undoubtedly be different, but that's it. Also note that if you have
/etc/cdrecord.conf set up properly, all you need is
$ cdrecord filename.iso
That CD just passed mediacheck on another machine.
