 People who used Xcdroast once, mostly don't like to use other GUIs anymore.

Is that because Xcdroast is somehow better than the other GUIs, or just 
because people tend to think it works, so why bother with anything else?

 Take a look at Smart Boot Manager and see if it will perform as you desire.
  I know it has worked most excellent for me, on both the newer machines and
 the older that do not even support bootable CD's.

 http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/

Smart Boot Manager requires the UCL compression library, which according to 
the documentation for SBM can be gotten from 
http://wildsau.idv.uni-linz.ac.at/mfx/ucl.html, which (surprise!) doesn't 
exist.

UCL can be gotten from http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/ucl

You don't need a binary editor, just run:

cabextract PX708A_103.exe

 Why don't you do all Plextor users a favour, and post how to extract
 the firmware binary file from the supplied .exe on Linux, i.e. not
 using windows. Including file names, file sizes, versions and byte
 offsets, and some distinct strings to look for.

At offset 0x1fee0 in the exe file there is the string \Opal_103.bin. 
Presumably the data following is the firmware. But exactly where does the 
file data start, and how long is it? I asked Jorg, but apparently his email 
address is either bogus or not working, because it bounced (or maybe my ISP's 
mail server screwed up--wouldn't be the first time).
