OT: CD-writing software that works in dos

[NarfsCompIsBack]

I could get our main computers working right now, however, I want to lifeboat some critical stuff off and someone we know says there is cd-writing software that works in dos. Anyone know of any?

This looks like what you are looking for.

If nothing else, download a live CD of Knoppix. I am sure it has a CD writing program, and is quite free. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Knoppix?

Knoppix is a variation of Linux that runs off of a bootable CD. You can download it from:

KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it.

You could also just pull the hard drive out, and get a big new one to use as the Primary/OS drive

At $1/gig, they're pretty darn cheap these days, and odds are you could use a bigger drive http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I've got a 160Gig. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Oh well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

The "can't delete your data if its not plugged in" theory still works though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Thanks for all the help.

Any one still know how to use DOS? Hell I forgot all the command years ago. Not that I had any memorized.

Yep. It's about the only access you have to certain network diagnostic tools in some Versions of Windows. Besides, who can forget <font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>dir/s/v c:\*.*</pre><hr />?

Well, I seem to have a working knoppix CD now. Another nifty to add to my toolbox. Thanks Combat Wombat and Electrum.
