The file there does appear as '.volume.inf' so that shouldn't be the problem. So... Once again I'm stumped. I'm trying now to see if Solaris or linux under VMware can burn to my CDburner. Has anyone else who has burned this cd image booted from it on a SB100 or U10? I'm wondering if the original on the website has some corruption in the part of the CD that has the boot parttion for this architecture? Just a thought. -Kyle What is in the .volume.inf file? and when is it used? is that the 'disk > label' or 'disk label package' the error's refer to? > If not where on the disk is the label? > > -Kyle > > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
