I've never had problems with burning data disks until I tried to burn this bootable one, which is why I thought it was linked with the boot image. I normally add directories and files to the list, excluding unnecessary ones if the collection is too big. If the last tab can calculate the sum without errors they burn fine - though it pays to burn at slowish speeds - 8x is right for most people. I don't burn to an image, I burn straight to disk, and it works.<snip> I've had problems with XCDroast,trying to copy data files. Following all those steps (disabling all the rockridge, joliet options except the one recommended for backup CDs) I was able to write out OK only on one occasion. Ever since then, everything goes fine until the actual burning, when it terminates prematurely, having written for about 0.06s.Doesn't seem to make any difference whether I try single or multi-session, CD-R or CD-RW. Any ideas? (Sorry I can't give the exact error message - I don't have that PC here; it's about 700 miles away)
