Subject: Burning a data CD


I want to make a CDROM of everything in $HOME/Documents in a format that
Windoze can read.   Individual files will all read in OOo or M$ Office.
I've never done it before.  I need it to be recursive (handle
subdirectories).  What's the easiest way to do this under Mandrake 9.1?

I tried X-CD-Roast, and got as far as selecting the Documents directory,
but couldn't figure out how to tell it to get all the files and
subdirectories.

Thanks.
