The information in Handbook, chaper: 12 Storage, section: 12.5 Creating and Using Optical Media (CDs & DVDs) is incomplete. There is subsection, 12.5.5 Duplicating Audio CDs which states: "Make sure the appropriate files exist in /dev. # cd /dev # sh MAKEDEV acd0t99 Note: In FreeBSD 5.0, devfs(5) will automatically create and manage entries in /dev for you, so it is not necessary to use MAKEDEV." and this is true but the next paragraph states: "2. Extract each track using dd(1). You must also use a specific block size when extracting the files. # dd if=/dev/acd0t1 of=track1.cdr bs=2352 # dd if=/dev/acd0t2 of=track2.cdr bs=2352 ... " Actually devfs(5) will create /dev/acd0t01 and /dev/acd0t02 .... devices. Fix: Substitute /dev/acd0t1 with /dev/acd0t01 and /dev/acd0t2 with /dev/acd0t02.
