Reading an open session CD

[vasah20]

I've created a CD using Windows DirectCD Creator, and I was wondering if there was a way I could pull the data off of it, and store it in Linux.

I can get XRoast to see the data tracks and the CD tracks, but I don't know what to do from there.

I can't get GCombust to do anything with the CD...

I want a Linux CD Writing App that I can effectively use as an archiver, allowing me to read and write data to the CD. All help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using LM 8.0, and I have a Yamaha CDRW IDE 8x8x24.


TIA

i make images of the CD i want to store - then i mount the image as a loop device.
e.g.
mount -o loop -t iso9660 imagename.img /mountpoint

thank you.
i'm at work right now, but i'll try it later.

question: how would i go about making the image of the cd... i'm assuming it's mkisofs...
