[TriLUG] making cd images with OS X/Darwin

[Shawn Page]

Are the Disk Copy and Burn Disc programs not working with your images? 
 In my case of making personal linux cd's, the gui has usually been 
sufficient:

    Insert blank cd.
    Pop-up should automatically appear.
    Select 'Open Disk Copy' for Action.
    Click OK.
    Select the image to burn.
    Click burn.
    Click preferred options for 'Burn Disc'.
    Click Burn.

This has worked quite nicely for creating Red Hat and Yellow Dog cd's.
