<title>Burning Raw Data CDs</title>
<para>You can choose to burn a file directly to CD, without
creating an ISO 9660 filesystem. Some people do this for
backup purposes. This runs more quickly than burning a
standard CD:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>burncd -f /dev/acd1c -s 12 data archive.tar.gz fixate</userinput></screen>
<para>In order to retrieve the data burned to such a CD, you
must read data from the raw device node :</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>tar xzvf /dev/acd1c</userinput></screen>
<para>You cannot mount this disk as you would a normal CDROM.
Such a CDROM cannot be read under any operating system
except FreeBSD. If you want to be able to mount the CD, or
share data with another operating system, you must use
<port>sysutils/mkisofs</port> as described above.</para>
