Using Robert Leslie's hfsutils I have created on disk the HFS filesystem image "hfs.img". I can mount "hfs.img" loopback and can read and write files to it. Now would a straight "cdrecord hfs.img" produce a CD that a Macintosh will read as an HFS volume?Why do you ask? I mean, burn it to a cd-rw and feed it to a Mac.
Right. At least it's faster...
Seems like your chances are good, on a block level all CDs are the same.
HFS volumes you put on CD still require Apple partition table. So the question is if hfsutils generate one. The latter kind of goes beyond the scope of discussions on this list:-) A.
