Yes it is a win2k CD - odd enough isn't it? ;) By the way I interpreted your mkisofs -r -J -v -o temp.iso /mnt/cdrom/<filetobe copied> as mkisofs -r -J -v -o temp.iso /mnt/cdrom/* when I think of it, it may have been better if I did a mkisofs -r -J -v -o temp.iso /dev/scd0 (this should also work - or am I wrong?) since I wanted the whole CD to be copied.
