What software did you use to read & write the image? Cdrdao under linux should be capable of just about anything that Nero can do in windows, but to deal with protected CDs, PSX / Dreamcast games etc, you need to specify some important options. A typical read process for a protected / PSX / DC disc would be: cdrdao read-cd --read-raw --datafile [filename.bin] --device [bus,id,lun] --driver generic-mmc-raw [filename.toc] [filename.bin] - The actual image file [bus,id,lun] - The SCSI-address of the used device [filename.toc] - The description file (Table Of Contents) To burn the resultant .bin/.toc set, you would use: cdrdao write --eject --speed [num] --device [bus,id,lun] --driver generic-mmc [filename.toc] Hope this helps.
