EXAMPLES

Get an overview of drives:


cdrskin -scanbus
cdrskin dev=ATA -scanbus
cdrskin --devices

Get info about a particular drive or loaded media:


cdrskin dev=0,1,0 -checkdrive
cdrskin dev=ATA:1,0,0 -atip
cdrskin dev=/dev/hdc -toc

Make used CD-RW writable again:


cdrskin -v dev=/dev/sg1 blank=all -eject
cdrskin -v dev=/dev/dvd blank=fast -eject

Write ISO-9660 filesystem image:


cdrskin -v dev=/dev/hdc speed=12 fs=8m driveropts=burnfree -sao -eject padsize=300k my_image.iso

Write compressed afio archive on-the-fly via crdskin 0.2.4:


find . | afio -oZ - | cdrskin -v dev=0,1,0 fs=32m speed=8 driveropts=burnfree padsize=300k -sao tsize=650m -

Write compressed afio archive on-the-fly via cdrskin 0.2.5 or higher:


find . | afio -oZ - | cdrskin -v dev=0,1,0 fs=32m speed=8 driveropts=burnfree padsize=300k -tao -

Write in multi-session (only in -tao mode)


cdrskin -tao padsize=300k -multi 1.iso
cdrskin -tao padsize=300k -multi 2.afio
cdrskin -tao padsize=300k -multi 3.afio
cdrskin -tao padsize=300k 4.afio

Get the next writeable addresses for an appendable media (written in multi-session):


cdrskin -msinfo

Write audio tracks:


cdrskin -v dev=ATA:1,0,0 speed=48 driveropts=burnfree -sao track1.wav track2.au -audio -swab track3.raw

FILES

If no --no_rc is given as the first argument then cdrskin attempts on startup to read the arguments from the following three files:


/etc/default/cdrskin
/etc/opt/cdrskin/rc
$HOME/.cdrskinrc

The files are read in the sequence given above, but none of them is required for cdrskin to function properly. Each readable line is treated as one single argument. No extra blanks. A first character '#' marks a comment, empty lines are ignored.

Example content of a startup file:


 # This is the default device
 dev=0,1,0
 # To accomodate to eventual remnant cdrskin-0.2.2 addresses
 dev_translation=+1,0,0+0,1,0
 # Some more options
 --fifo_start_empty
 fs=16m
