Does anyone know of any good ISO makers for the Mac (OSX)? I to use CD Images across multiple platforms, and this is the best way to do it for me.

(If you could avoid telling me your universally fantastic method of sharing CD's - that would be nice. This is the best way for me. I hate to sound like a b*tch but it's gotta be done)

I thought Disk Copy did that.

Otherwise, go to Terminal and type:

dd if=<your cdrom device> of=output.iso

I'll try that after I reinstall Jag. I tried the RageLTPro for Apple laptops patch on my PB, and it didn't work. The computer can't boot to anything except a CD.

But thanks, I'll try it.

BTW: Disk copy DOES make images, but only .dmg's

I'm getting a dd: no match error no matter what I do. I can switch to the directory, but it won't iso it.

Aha! It's the asterisk as a wildcard - It won't work with it...crap! How else so I move a whole directory?

to move the whole directory type

Code: [Select]

That would move the directory to where ever you specified.  This works for directorys and such but I have no idea about a cd or anything like that.  Hope that helps.

There is an old program, pre-toast, called Astart CD Copy.

I think Disk Copy makes iso images however. Look in it's options.
