cdrecord just points to wodim and wodim has 20 page long man
page that makes little if any sense. But then, that's why
they made GUI apps. No one can understand this stuff and it
will make more coasters than the GUI programs.
The sad news is while trying to access the directory where I
have all the freeware the system locked up. I ended out doing
a shutdown from a remote terminal. After rebooting and remounting
the disk with the freeware on it it is unreadable. Complained
about not being properly dismounted and then the rebuild failed.
Disk now appears to contain nothing but the [000000] directory.
Sigh....
Beginning to see why I gave up on this the last time.
