I placed a CD in a drive.
I ran
sudo dd sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=HMI_B_Image_File_4-23-09_disk_1.iso
It completed. I then transferred the ISO file to an XP machine, use
Sonic to burn the ISO file to another CD, and there was a file missing
(the largest) in the burned CD.
Seems like the data got transferred through the dd, but not a file
name. What might I be doing wrong?

What might I be doing wrong?Though it may work, I'd never use dd to make an ISO image, try mkisofs, see if you have better luck with that. And if you want a block for block copy I'd use cdrdao (don't think this is included in standard CentOS distribution). nate
Use mkisofs next time. It is designed to create iso files (cd images) On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 2:27 AM, Al Sparks <data345 at yahoo.com> wrote:> > I placed a CD in a drive. > I ran > sudo dd sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=HMI_B_Image_File_4-23-09_disk_1.iso > > It completed.
