Detect CD/DVD information before copy

~ # isoinfo -d -i /dev/cdrom | grep -i -E 'block size|volume size'
Setting input-charset to 'UTF-8' from locale.
Logical block size is: `2048`
Volume size is: `74500`

In this example blocksize and volume size are the numbers we're looking for
Now copy the image to disk

dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/test.iso bs=2048 count=74500
