I have cut a number of cds now, the cd writer works. I have cut netbsd, linux, composites, etc. Process works, cd works media works. downloading the freebsd 3_3-install.cd0 image for alpha, renaming it 3_3-install.iso, writing it to good media, resulted in a single file. Same name as the cd0, on the cd. Can open it, can't look inside. downloading the same file again, copying it to a different spot and renaming it in the process, same result. Using different brand of media, same result. I now have 3 cds with one 650MB or so file named 3_3-install on it. > > I used two different styles of media, CD writable and rewritable. > > No joy. > > How was there no joy?
