Apps :: Alternatives to CDW CD burning program

K3B didn't work at all. I tried the Gcombust MyDSL extension, and that never worked. I installed BashBurn, but that didn't work because it requires a lot of other stuff that I don't have (cdrdao, growisofs, cdparanoia, readcd, flac, and normalize), and I couldn't find a way to install cdrdao.

I'm stuck. How do I blow past this speed trap? Has someone written a script that I can just copy and execute? I need a quick fix.

I have had trouble with cdw myself but I thought it was the old PC that I was using. What I ended up doing was hacking the CD burning part out of /usr/sbin/mkmydsl

That just burns iso files. I always manually created the iso file cause it depended on whatever directories would be backed up:

mkisofs -o test.iso -Jrv /home/dsl

I don't know if this link still works:Burning CDs on Linux

If nothing seems to work for you but works for everyone else, maybe it isn't the apps that don't work.

EDIT: "You might not need all of these programs for BashBurn to do what you want it to do..." You don't need them all.
