This section describes a tutorial on how to read raw data from a CD-ROM by sector locations.
Another tool in the "cdrtools" package is called "readcd", which allows you
to read raw data from any CD-ROM by given sector locations.
"readcd" takes an option called "sectors=<start>-<end+1>".
Here is what I did to read the sector on CD where the README.TXT file is located.
C:\>\local\cdrtools\isoinfo dev=0,0,0 -l | find "README.TXT"
