Joerg: I sent this back to you on Friday, in response to your question, but I have not heard back from you? Should I do something different with the image being that the size is divisible by 2048 and HP said to use RAW mode. Also the cdrom would boot the HP box, but eventually errored during a system restore. They could not mount the cdrom in an already booted HP system. So there is a possibility that the image I had needed to be modified to correct the system restore part, but what about not being able to mount the cd, might that bring me back to the RAW issue? -- Mike Cannon Infrastructure Systems Administrator Management Information Purdue University 1061 Freehafer Hall (FREH) West Lafayette, IN 47907-1061 office phone: 765.494.6357 office fax: 765.496.1380 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

What I have: 561219584/2048=274033 yes, it is dividable by 2048 Dave is this the same file size as when it was on the HP-UX box? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I was wrong about the size. I don't know where I received the 470 figure from. I just burned the cd using the command: cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,0,0 -data /mnt/cdrom/fs_image cdrecord wrote 535 MB of data to the new cd. The cd was created but I can't mount it. Not sure if the image the HP guys gave me was bad or that it will only be mountable on an HP-UX box? I'm working from home today so it will have to wait until Monday before I have them test it in an HP-UX box. > > If this is only 470 MN, then it is most likely not a RAW image and > you should just try to write it with cdrecord. > Jörg > Since I was wrong about the size is the above statement still true?
