[ale] Burning Redhat 7.3 iso's

[Jeff Layton]

Good Evening,

   I'm trying to burn my own Redhat iso's for the first
time (I usually just buy some cheap ones off the net,
but I'm expanding :) I tried burning them using xcdroast
both with Disk-at-Once (DAO) and Track-At-Once
(TAO) since I couldn't find anything that told me how
they were created. No joy. Everytime I tried to mount
the CD I received the error,

[root at home2 tmp]# mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device

   So, I searched the web for some help and looked at RH's
manual (Chapter 4) on how to make CDs. They mentioned
that you can use cdrecord directly via the command,

cdrecord -v -eject speed=4 dev=0,0,0   disk1.iso

(I'm trying to burn at 4x and my burner is device 0,0,0 found
via "cdrecord --scanbus" and disk1.iso is the iso I
downloaded). This didn't work either!
   Does anyone have any suggestions on what I'm doing
wrong?

TIA,

Jeff
