By default it choses the "HFS+" format. Burnz is a cool tool. I use it, and payed for it even. Much, much more efficient for burning disc images than Disk Utility, and I generally burn images. Burnz, in this case, creates a hybrid disc, one with HFS+ and another with ISO9660+RR+Joilet, with the same data on both sessions. This emulates the default MacOS behavior if you burn a folder (as compared to burning a disc image). I can unequivcally say that HFS+ is _NOT_ based on ISO9660. Your MacOS disks are all formatted in HFS+, and ISO9660 is a write-once format. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
