Well, I've managed to successfully burn a music (cdda) cd by manually
typing in a toc-file and using cdrdao from the commandline. I'm getting
the feeling that most of the error messages I'm getting when I try using
GUI burning apps is because they are passing the wrong parameters to the
commandline tools.
Anyway, you need to load paride, epat, and pg, in that order. As far as
burning software, I've tried KOnCD and XCDRoast for burning a cdda (both
gave me errors, that's why I used CLI cdrdao), KOnCD let me burn an ISO
but it had gaps in it and was useless. I will experiment with another
ISO soon and let you know. When I have time I'm going to try hacking at
KOnCD and see if I can get it to pass the right options and work with
the 7200.
