Try writing an ISO image to a CDROM disk and use the disk to view what's in that ISO image. You might have hit a bug in WinISO. Quoting winiso.com: WinISO is a CD-ROM image file utility that can convert BIN to ISO, extract/edit/create ISO files directly, make bootable CDs and as a BIN/ISO converter/extractor/editor. I suppose by `extract' they mean read the contents of an ISO image and create a directory hierarchy somewhere on the local disk that is a mirror of the ISO image contents. It really looks like a bug of WinISO to me... - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
