Hints for how to copy a CD using the clone method: Step 1 (read master CD): Call "readcd dev=b,t,l -clone f=somefile" and the files somefile and somefile.toc will be generated. If the disk contains many sectors that are unreadable by intention, call "readcd dev=b,t,l -clone -nocorr f=somefile" Step 2 (write copy): Call "cdrecord dev=b,t,l -raw96r -clone -v somefile" If cdrecord complains that your drive does not support -raw96r, but the drive is able to do clone writing at all, then cdrecord will propose you a different write mode that works with the drive.
