Yep, made sure of that. I was thinking maybe it has something to do with
the mkisofs image I made. I used the following options:
mkisofs -b <my boot image> -c boot.catalog \
-o <my output file> \
-J -r -T \ create Joliet directory records, rockridge it, and create
a TRANS.TBL
-p <info record> \
-P <More info> \
-A <more info> \
-V <more info> \
.
Is this the way you create a cd that is readable by CD9660_BOOT?
Thanks,
Anthony
