The package that they are using on hp-ux is creating a single file - like an iso - but it is not an iso, because I can't mount it as such: mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cd_image /mnt/iso
Then this single file is to be written to a cd in raw mode, that HP claims will contain 470 MB of HP-UX os crap? Joerg Schilling wrote: > > >From: "Mike R.
