dd does not seem to be the right tool for this. What exactly do you want to do? Make a backup copy of your game CD/DVD? Xfburn doesn't do copies, so install Brasero instead. Brasero will easily make an exact 1:1 copy of the CD for you.
If you want to save the
contents of your game CD to your hard drive, I would use
rsync instead. I just tested this method below and it worked for me:
Code:
rsync -av "/media/stan/disk label" /home/stan/Desktop/
1.
rsync does not need sudo
2. Change 'stan' to your own user name in both source and destination
3. Double quotes needed on the source (as shown) only if the 'disk label' has spaces
4. Capitalization matters for both source and destination
I don't see /dev/cdrom used much anymore. It may work with
rsync too, but /media/username/cd-name is probably more reliable. The CD may not have a name, it could just be a serial number, or whatever, but if it has upper and lower case letters (and spaces), you need to match them exactly.
