I'm using 8.0-BETA2 and have a SATA DVD drive. I'd like to take a DVD and create an ISO file from it. I have not done this before on FreeBSD. I've googled and it appears it should be as simple as: dd if=/dev/<dvd drive> of=/path/to/ISO So I figured out that my DVD drive is seen as /dev/acd0 and verified that it's accessible with "mount -t 9660 /dev/acd0 /mnt". After doing so, I can 'ls' files on /mnt. Then I unmounted the drive. So to create my ISO, I issued this command: dd if=/dev/acd0 of=DVD.iso But get this output: dd: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument 0+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.000132 secs (0 bytes/sec) I googled some more and thought that loading atapicam.ko might help. But yet I get the same error when using /dev/cd0. So what am I doing wrong? Thanks, Drew -- Be a Great Magician!
