If you want to "copy" a CD, so you can write to another one:This makes them not a CD. I wouldn't hold up much hope on Linux to support these. Just about all Unixes use cdrecord as the underlying tool to read and write CDs, and I would surprised if the cdrecord author decided to process CDs that don't follow the published standards.
what are you talking about? you don't need cdrecord to READ a cd. are you saying that since these things aren't /real/ cds no one has written anything to work around this problem?
if this is the case, you have any idea where can i learn how to write my own?
Either use one of the GUI tools like Xcdroast, OR:
mount the CD (/mnt/cdrom).
Then "mkisofs -R -o /<sompath>/<somefilename.iso> /mnt/cdrom"
That will create an iso image of the CD. (I can't speak for any protection schemes.. Protection scheme exist for a reason. This method will not curcumvent those reasons, or schemes. Nor is it intended to.).
If it's an Audio CD, you'll want "grip".
To write it back to a different CD:
Toss a blank CD-R in your CD-R writer, and:
cdrecord -v dev=0,0 speed=48 /<somepath>/<somefilename.iso>
(assuming that the device is actually 0,0, and is capable if 48x speeds).
There are GUIs that will do the above for you. But I like quick & simple command-lines.
