Just a few ideas: 1) What flavour of CD is it? You may find that if it is a Mac CD, linux won't like it - try a standard format (eg. the debian install CD, if you have one). Yes - I realise that is probably what you are using but it is worth a try. It was the debian Cd which read fine under

I know I need Toast or the equivalent, but which version? 3.5.x for 68K. Perhaps 4.x would work if your Q950 was upgraded to PPC. I believe that Toast 4.12 was the last version to work on 68k. I certainly use it on 68k, both on real macs and under b2 in windows. Kyle.
