    <title>Installation of Cdrtools</title>

    <note>
      <para>Installation of <application>Cdrtools</application> will fail if raw
      kernel headers are found in <filename class='directory'>/usr/src/linux</filename>
      either as actual files or a symlink. As of the Linux 2.6 kernel series, this directory
      should no longer exist because appropriate headers were installed in the
      linux-libc-headers package during the base LFS installation.</para>
    </note>

    <para>When creating an ISO 9660 image with <command>mkisofs</command>,
    the character set of the filenames used must be specified unless it is
    ISO-8859-1, the default. If the character set is not specified correctly,
    then non-ASCII filenames will be unreadable on other systems, such as
    <application>Microsoft Windows</application>. This patch allows any
    input character set supported by <application>Glibc</application>
    (such as UTF-8) to be specified to <command>mkisofs</command>, as
    opposed of the short list of built-in encodings. Also, the default input
    character set is set to that of the current locale, which is the correct
    behavior. To address this situation, apply the mkisofs_iconv patch:</para>

<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../cdrtools-&cdrtools-version;-mkisofs_iconv-1.patch</userinput></screen>

    <para>The <command>cdrecord</command> program has hard-coded non-ASCII
    characters in its messages.  Since these characters are part of the
    ISO-8859-1 character set, they will not be displayed correctly in
    locales that use a different character set, such as UTF-8. The following
    patch converts these characters to ASCII approximations:</para>

<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../cdrtools-&cdrtools-version;-ascii-2.patch</userinput></screen>

    <para>Install <application>Cdrtools</application> by running the following
