Pre Burning Steps
Downloading/Installing cdrecord
To burn the Max cd-rom in Linux or BeOS you will need the CDRecord utility. You can download them here:
BeBits - cdrtools (http://www.bebits.com/app/3964)
cdrecord alpha (ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha)
Installing the latest version
For example, on this page ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha find the newest version and download. In my case, it was this: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/cdrtools-2.01.01a14-pre.tar.bz2 Now follow closely these instruction. Once downloaded, double click the file. If expander does not extract the .tar file, install this [1] (http://www.bebits.com/app/3218) . Once you've double clicked and extracted the .bz2 file, double click on the .tar file. You should see a folder named cdrtools-2.01.01. Open that folder. Once in that folder, open a terminal. Type in
make
A whole lot of messages will come scrolling by. Wait until they stop, could take as long as 10 minutes. After that is complete, type in
cd cdrecord/OBJ/bepc-beos-gcc/ cp -f cdrecord /boot/home/config/bin/ cd / cdrecord --version Cdrecord-ProDVD-Clone 2.01.01a12 (i586-pc-beos) Copyright (C) 1995-2006 J�rg Schilling
Burning Steps
From the open terminal window above where we discussed Post Download Steps (http://www.beosmax.org/wiki/index.php/Burning_Max_cd-rom_in_BeOS_5_or_Linux.#Post_Download_Steps) and go to the location you have the files of downloaded BeOS 5 PE Max Edition. These files are: BeOS5PEMaxEditionV31b1.iso and floppycd.img
In the terminal type:
cdrecord -scanbus
press Enter. This will give you a listing of the CDrom devices with their device number similar to this:
Cdrecord-ProDVD-Clone 2.01.01a12 (i586-pc-beos) Copyright (C) 1995-2006 J�rg Schilling
Using libscg version 'schily-0.8'.
scsibus8:
8,0,0 800) 'HL-DT-ST' 'CD-RW GCE-8525B ' '1.01' Removable CD-ROM
8,1,0 801) *
8,2,0 802) *
8,3,0 803) *
8,4,0 804) *
8,5,0 805) *
8,6,0 806) *
8,7,0 807) *
As you see here 8,0,0 is the recorder device. Now according to this type in the terminal, all on ONE line:
cdrecord dev=8,0,0 -eject -v -data -dao -pad -padsize63s driveropts=burnfree gracetime=0 floppycd.img BeOS5PEMaxEditionV31b1.iso
press Enter. This will write the cd-rom at the maximal speed of your cdrw drive and eject the cdrom after the burn.
You now have a working and bootable BeOS 5 PE Max Edition cd-rom.
