Re: cd-to-cd burning

Wow! I'm surprised two people already jumped forward to tell you that you can't do
this when in fact you can. All you need is:

cdrecord dev=5,0 speed=4 -isosize /dev/hdc

of course you'll have to suitable replace the devices, speeds, etc. This works just
fine and dandy. Man am I amazed other people are still copying the whole image!
