I live in Canada and it only gets hot enough five times a year. The rest of the time your laundry would freeze hard as a brick in 90 seconds. In fact, I have vivid memories of being up north and watching a beer freeze solid ( or nearly solid ) within 30 secs. One does not use a bare hand in such cases or you lose a layer of skin. > >> > I hope you all know that you may write the CD with: >> > >> > cdrecord -v sol-nv-b70-sparc-dvd-iso-? >> > >> > as cdrecord combines several files to a single >> track on a DVD. >> >> great feature ! > > Ha!

If you can't do the job with cdrecord then it probably can not be done at all. for example of the impossible see this thing : http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/blog/images/Microsoft_Windows_Vista_Business_Edition_DVD_s.png It can be mounted as both a HSFS as well as UDFS DVD but in neither case can readcd actually read its contents. Some wild and hokey things are going on there for sure. I did use star to read the UDF filesystem and copy it to my local harddisk but without the boot magic I hardly doubt that I can PXE boot Windows Vista. I have no idea if it can even do such a thing at all. Dennis _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
