[parisc-linux] How to burn the CD?

[xfs]

Well... Now I have the cd's downloaded (took a loong time for my 33.6modem
to download).
Now to the next problem: How to burn?
The problem here is:
I only got 1 cd-burner, and that device is in my Pa-risc-box, becouse it
uses scsi, and I dont have any other mashines here that have scsi-cards.
The pa-risc (712/60) still uses Hp/UX 10.20...

Anyony knowing how to use the cd-burner in HpUX10.20 on a pa-risc?

Another question: My HpUX-install-cd didn't boot on the cdrom...
Is there any wrong with my burned cd with hpux, the cdrom-device or the
mashine (pa712/60)? I hope it is the hp-install-cd becouse if it is the
hardware, then I'm not beeing able to boot the linux-install-cd ether.

G'day 'xfs':

I posted here a little while back how to install without having a CDROM
drive. You could use this same method if you can't burn the cd, and have a
couple of spare external SCSI drives.

I think you posted on how to install without a cd or a network.  If xfs
has a network, he may be able to install via that much more easily.

cdrecord (and XCDRoast) can be made to work on HP-UX if you can't find another 
easier solution.

What type of cdrom drive is it? Firmware only supports certain types. Try 
doing a "sea"rch in the firmware interface with a "known bootable on hppa 
systems" cd in the drive. If the search finds it then you should be able to 
boot from it.
