Linux Disc Burning Help

Post by ausbigshow »

Hey All!

So I can't for the life of me figure out how to consistently burn CDI's on my Linux machine! Some games work, but others end up burning in such a way that makes my dreamcast read them as audio CDs. I'm running Pop!_OS 20.10 (an Ubuntu derivative if that helps) and using this toolkit here: https://github.com/Nold360/mksdiso

Can anyone with Linux experience help me out? I really want to get this to work, because I'd love to play Millennium Racer Y2K fighters!

Thanks in advance!

I had success using: github.com/alex-free/dreamcast-cdi-burner

And suggest you try it out.

There are some caveats though. It basically didn't work when I was using a external USB CD burner no matter what i tried. Did work fine when i switched to using a internal sata cd-burner (and burning at lower speeds)
