Best free/low-cost Windows software for burning Linux iso's to CD/DVD-R CD/DVD-RW
Suggestions please-something at least comparable to k3b.

I use CDBurnerXP http://cdburnerxp.se/
There are several other options as well. when you say comparable, exactly what features are you looking for ? |
ImgBurn is easy and reliable:

OK-my PC, a HP Pavillion a810n w/ CD/DVD writer-for some reason can't write cd-rw's-says it's supposed to-But it doesn't
My k3b GUI says I'm setup to burn anything, my check of "lshw" got this- Code:
*-cdrom:0 Anyway-so I figured trying Wine with a Windows app(but don't know?), or installing one of the suggestions you guys provide to my brother's XP and burning the CD/DVD-RW's on his computer. |
When I went through my phase of distrohopping a few years back, I tried CD-RWs, and one or two of them failed (problems usually during installation) so I stopped using them and stick to CD-Rs or DVD-Rs now. I've no idea why they're not as reliable as -Rs.

Google for 'Infra-Recorder'. It's free-ware, and back when I still has WinXP around, I found it VERY simple and reliable. One or two clicks to burn a CD image.
Alternately, under Linux, while I'm not sure what version of cdrw-tools you may have on your system, you could try the following to burn a CD .ISO image (assuming that's what you're trying to do): As root, do: Code:
bash$ cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd speed=4 padsize=63s -pad -dao -v -eject /absolute/path/to/image.iso Good luck! Sasha |

Mainly I want to put in another plug for ImgBurn. I think it is the best choice. Before I found ImgBurn I tried several other CD burning programs and was always confused over their UI and sometimes got bad results. No I install ImgBurn on any Windows computer where I need to Burn CDs or DVDs. That has been at least eight different Windows computers so far and as many different kinds of media and zero problems.

Really I wanna know if you can write changes back to a CD-RW using a livecd distro like slax?
Is that possible? Like a USB? |
Do you mean just write back edited parts? Just change one bit without changing everything else? No, I shouldn't think so.

OK-in Slackware 12.2 it seems it's not recognizing my CD/DVD writer.
Code:
root@bz:~# cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrom1 speed=4 padsize=63s -pad -v -eject /root/Desktop/v1/mydsl.iso Code:
root@bz:~# cdrecord -scanbus I have burned iso's to CD-R in Slack, but when I try CD-RW, that's what happens. How do I fix this?? Here is fstab- Code:
GNU nano 2.0.9 File: /etc/fstab |
OH-I saw the comment just as I hit save...der?
Is that the issue? |
my opinion it the best burner ripper and others it's NERO. NERO 9 can make copy of the blu-ray disc, DVD and cd with the foot beside of the back. I use it to make my personal dvd's. I download the movies in the BitComet and make the menus and intro with NERO. OK. It's a pretty expensive but with sure that you pay for only one time to buy a burn program.
NERO it's number 1!!! |
If it's a matter of how many votes...
I too like CDBurnerXP and recommend it, but there may be no best here, only several that work well enough. There may be some difference for the burning device used and for the medium to be burned, so best, or very good, may be particular to the circumstances and occasion. |

Some livecd versions have a way to relocate entirely into ram after booting, so the CD drive could be available for burning another .iso (but that would require enough ram for both the image you are booted from and the new one you want to burn). Even if you weren't booted from the CD, I don't know whether any Linux CD writing software can write just changes inside the image to modify a CD-RW. The usual way is to create an entire new modified .iso file and write that. |
