growisofs for cdrom?

linuxbird · 08-03-2008, 06:20 AM

growisofs is a nice tool for burning dvds.

For burning CDs, cdrecord seems to be fine. However, I'd really
like a tool similar to growisofs for burning CDs.

Anyone know of one? Is there any effort to expand growisofs to work with CDs?

What functions of growisofs are you trying to replicate for CDs?

1. Consistency in command line, whether writing bd, dvd or cd.

2. Ability to run an integrated optical writer and mkisofs command.

3. Ability to readily specify either a mkisofs or image file for a
burn.

4. Consistency in how root access is handled, and how mounted file systems are handled.

cdrecord is really one of the only tools for burning CDs and it's really not that bad. Here's a few examples:

burning ISO:

Code:

cdrecord_param="-v gracetime=2 dev=$destin speed=$speed driveropts=burnfree"
cdrecord $cdrecord_param -dao $source

burning files in a directory:

Code:

cdrecord_param="-v gracetime=2 dev=$destin speed=$speed driveropts=burnfree"
mkisofs_param='-graft-points -rational-rock -full-iso9660-filenames -iso-level 2'
mkisofs $mkisofs_param $source | cdrecord $cdrecord_param -tao -
