I'm just making a guess here, but wouldn't a kind of progress report
for the terminal command 'burn' be provided if you embedded the 'do
shell script "drutil -drive 1 burn" ' command in Automator?
Sounds interesting. Before trying this, I tried burning via Disk
Utility only to find that ALL blank media I tried (CD-R. CD-RW,
DVD-R) were unwritable. All those experiments with drutil and hdiutil
must have damaged something. I CAN burn from a Burn Folder, however,
so perhaps it's not a hardware problem, but I can no longer burn
using Disk Utility. Until I can find and fix the problem, I am not
going to experiment with burning via a shell script.
Yesterday, I downloaded and looked at about half-a-dozen "burn"
applications. None of them would burn a sparseimage file. One of
them, which looked very nice, would burn .dmg files, but it also used
'hdiutil' and failed with a crash similar to my results.
Until I know more ... burn via hdiutil or drutil is DANGEROUS.
