Debian GNU/Linux will find your CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD drives without
the need for you to do anything. For older versions of Debian
GNU/Linux see Section 14.1.
The simplest way to burn a CD is with the Naultilus CD Creator
described in Section 65.3. It is a basic burner to
just do the job without any fuss. An excellent alternative which
provides more control, as well as burning Audio CDs, is
GnomeBaker
which provides a very easy to use
intuitive interface to access your burner and build disk images to
burn. Another respectable, but more complex, alternative is
xcdroast.
An excellent and easy to use command line alternative is
burn.
For making backups of DVDs and creating other Video formats see
Chapter .
