Hello,

First, let me admit that I have no idea what the TriLUG is or where 
it's located, but I have some information for at least two people (Ken 
Mink and Bradford Powell). I would have emailed them directly but the 
Google posts referencing their posts did not contain their email 
addresses, so I joined the list.

In short, the suggestion Bradford Powell gave to Ken Mink about running 
dd on the device file for the image *does work* and produces a file 
that works with cdrecord, producing a flawless disc. The trick is 
running umount on its mount point first, to get around the 'device in 
use' error message. For full details, feel free to check my blog post 
on it here:

I will appreciate any comments and criticism. Thanks!
