cheatcodes in cd/DVD labels

[simone.montanari]

Use an ISO editor to change the file named ISOLINUX.CFG .....

That's easy to say in vague general terms. But can you suggest a specific free ISO editor that new users could use to do this, in either Windows or Knoppix? I know of no editor that will do this unless you pay a pretty outrageous price for it. I hope that you do.

Thanks Harry, I am happy that you liked the idea
For cbugger01, I know that there is always a smarter way.
The original idea was to put standard cheatcodes in the publisher label. (Clearly “sofia loren” was a joke). I do not like the idea of editing the original iso: it is too hard to explain my mother on the telephone how to use vi.

Concerning labels:

Windows: Nero OK and CDBurnerXP(freeware) OK and magicISO OK
They all support the labels but only magicISO can modify them easily (Harry this is a problem).


UNIX: cdrdao OK and cdrecord OK and dvdrtools OK and dvd+rw-tools OK and K3B OK
and probably all kde or gnome programs which use them



Concerning the reading script for K.Knopper:

dd if=/dev/dvd of=dvdstart.dat bs=2048 count=1000
the labels are just after the string “CD001”

Two examples with very few labels:
