Specific Question:
Wanted: a foolproof way to mount a disk image of EA Sports F1
Championship CD on the desktop of a OSX G4 Powerbook so that the sim
can be accessed quicker and that the actual CD does not have to be
present.
And Yes I do own the original CD, but I wish to have the sim on the
desktop instead of having to cart the CD around in the CD drive.
I have done this successfully with XPlane7 but the F1 CD will not
allow disk copy to access or copy the invisible file (00000001.LT1)
although I can see the invisible files with Invisible Finder 2.1.
I can't even copy the CD with Toast to keep the original safe. Both
methods report errors which prevent copying of the file 00000001.LT1
Thanks

HI Doug,
You just encountered SafeDisk (From the annoying makers of Macrovision
no less). You can't copy the CD... Period. (Well, at least no one has
been able to crack it yet.)
It wouldn't make any difference anyway because I disk image won't cut
it these days as there are API's to check if a mounted volume it a
really a CD, or just an image.
