Apologies for following up my own email, but when I wrote the original reply I was a bit rushed by something else. After sending, I realised it wasn't very clear! I am fairly sure I usually used the Joliet extensions and CDROMFS or the CDFS 'patch' at the time. So would have intended to do that. However it was many years ago so I can't recall, and may indeed have made a mistake. From what you explain it looks likely you are right about the reason for the change of name from "O!RunImage" to "O_RunImage". So I probably did use inappropriate settings at the time. If I can find the CDROM sometime I'll have another look.
