$ unzip D45UXR03.exe
Archive: D45UXR03.exe
inflating: DE45UXR1.EXE
inflating: MAKEDISK.BAT
inflating: makedisk.pif
Copy these 3 files onto a dos partition, run MAKEDISK.BAT while in dos,
which creates a boot floppy (with a windows98 io.sys and command.com ;-> )
Boot from that, a:\autoexec.bat will run a:\user1.exe (47K or so),
select your LG CED-8080B, then it "uploads" a:\<anything>.lge into your
writer. When it finishes, reboot linux (and ignite the floppy :) ).
I upgraded today from 1.06 to 1.07, and I haven't tested it yet. I will
try to write 870M CD-s again (but not eurodata this time).
