I can't figure out how to make a CD in Mac OS X that would be bootable to a classic environment.

I'm not sure if there is a way...I worked my derrière (:-P) off and wasted 10 CD-Rs trying to make an OS 8.6 (bootable) CD for my 7200 last year, using my iMac G4 (10.3.5 at the time).

Just lettin' you know...

I was using an Apple CD-ROM drive, maybe a 800E (something like that)

in a certain way to get it to be bootable?

Yes. In Toast, you have to have the "bootable" option turned on. I can't figure out how to make a CD in Mac OS X that would be bootable to a classic environment. Sucks that I can't make a bootable CD for my SE, since I have no System 6 CDs.

Any advice on this would be very welcome.
