Have you read the CD-Writing HOWTO? Also, what are you trying to accomplish?

For instance, to perform a backup, you might have to tar to a file and then
write the file to the CD; you should then be able to un-tar directly from
the CD.

  Running Linux Suse 6.3 and Linux Redhat 6.1 on two boxes.
  Does anyone know if I can use the tar command when I do a
  Cd-burn using 'cdrecord' and 'mkiosfs'? If so what syntas would
  I use and also how to read it.

  Thanks,

  David WIllcox :-)
