I agree(not wanting to start an argument either), I had such a night with
.img file. I am so use to .iso when I download files. Lucky a friend was
able to burn it for me. Which has made me happy. I have BeOS Pro5 but the
the compaq drive would burn it. To be honest the only CD-R Software I have
gotten to work with my compay is Roxio.

Hey question, I know last year a lot of site with Be Software when down with
Be, Inc. go away. Does anyone know a get site that is update? BeBit and
Tucows have some stuff but a lot seem to be going away. I am almost to the
point I like to create site that house Be Software to make sure that if it
link is gone at list you have somewhere to go.

Oh, well back to my servers...

I've been thinking about this and I don't quite understand why a
'standard' iso couldn't have been produced.  Why did they do it this
way?  OK you have to do it first in two files, but to make things
easier after that, why not make a single iso so people wouldn't have
this problem burning two images onto the same disk?

BTW I used cdrecord which worked fine.
