The README.copy file in the cdredord distribution states:
If the master disk is made of several partitions (like a Solaris boot
CD),
the best way to copy a CD is to use the program 'readcd'. It ignores
the partition info and does raw SCSI reads.
I have followed this advice in making a bootable copy of the Solaris 8
distribution. It works.
