Well, I havn't tried anything yet, but I've got a "Pinnacle Micro" cdr
that I plan to get working this weekend.  If you have no joy within
the next week, drop me a line and I'll share my experiences.

I think you're looking for the od driver - unfortunately, my SCSI machine
(the other's a laptop) is running 2.1.5 and I suspect the od driver
runs best under 961014 (the laptops running that).

If you get the od driver to grok the pinnacle (don't know yet), you'll
need to look up "mkisofs".
