What you called filename should be the ISO (top of my head, I think the only exception is if you're creating an audio CD with only WAV/AIFF files that go into tracks). So use mkisofs first, then burncd. HTH, Dan ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You have to remember what it is to mount it again, though; most people will assume it's an ISO 9660 if it's on a CD. It can be useful to burn a raw tar or dump file to a CD, for example. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I didn't know that, thanks for pointing that out. Though in order to have anything bootable (from a CD rom) you'd have no other choice than iso, or not? (I sometimes made these mini install CDs containing only the 2.88 floppy image but I always thought of it as an ISO with the bootable image being specified. I'm now wondering if I misunderstood this).
