Here is how you can do it on BSD / Linux.

Approach is:
 . create a raw image using 'mkisofs'
 . write the image to CD using 'cdrecord' or 'burncd'

Let's say that the file sp42052.exe is in a directory called drivers

so drivers/ directory contains this .exe file (along with other files)

Commands to execute are:

1. mkisofs -J -L -R -o image.raw  drivers/

2. Linux
   cdrecord -eject dev=ATA:0,2,0 image.raw
   (the dev,bus,fn value can be seen using -scanbus option)

   FreeBSD
   burncd -f /dev/acd0 data image.raw fixate

Well, thats all there is to it.

In case you are on windozz, use magicISO.

Hope this helps.


thanks
Saifi.
