Disc images can be (IIRC) made with several programs, you can use the free Disk Copy supplied by Apple. If its not on your hard disc, try looking for it on your System CD.
Start it up, and put in the CD you want an image of. I don't know how older versions work, but certainly with my version (6.3.3), just drag the disc's icon (or a folder icon) onto the Disk Copy window, and complete the dialog that appears to specifiy the name, location and settings for the image. (Zero all blocks is probably pointless if you're doing a CD image). (If dragging fails, try choosing Image>Create Image From Disk, and select the CD from there.) Note that disc images can be read-write, faking a disc. You can even make a CD "readable" by saving it to a read-write image. Click OK; Disk Copy will then create a file on the hard disc containing the entire contents of the CD. When it's done, you can double-click that file, and Disk Copy will run, and mount the disc image as if it were a real CD, you can even un-mount the pretend CD icon you get by dragging it to the trash. Your CD is now transferred to the hard disc, and can be read from much faster than the original. - Daniel. -- StarMax is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> StarMax list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/starmax.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/starmax%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Macintosh?
