Optical Discs
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Passthrough reading and recording (a.k.a., "burning") are not supported by Xen.
|
|
Currently, the only options for reading and recording optical discs (e.g., CDs, DVDs, BRDs) in Qubes are:
|
|
|
|
1. Use a USB optical drive.
|
|
2. Attach a SATA optical drive to a secondary SATA controller, then assign this secondary SATA controller to a VM.
|
|
3. Use a SATA optical drive attached to dom0.
|
|
(**Caution:** This option is [potentially dangerous](https://github.com/Qubes-Community/Contents/blob/master/docs/security/security-guidelines.md#dom0-precautions).)
|
|
|
|
To access an optical disc via USB follow the [typical procedure for attaching a USB device](/doc/usb-devices/#with-the-command-line-tool), then check with the **Qubes Devices** widget to see what device in the target qube the USB optical drive was attached to.
|
|
Typically this would be `sr0`.
|
|
For example, if `sys-usb` has device `3-2` attached to the `work` qube's `sr0`, you would mount it with `mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/removable`.
|
|
You could also write to a disc with `wodim -v dev=/dev/sr0 -eject /home/user/Qubes.iso`.
