    you could not burn B2 onto a CD. it is oversize..... Boss has been told.

 I knew it looked big. I ran Brasero, opened the iso and Brasero was happy
to burn it onto CD-R for me. The CD-R was produced by Memorex and its specs
are 700MB, 80 minute, 52x speed.

This is the iso that I burnt to CD-R, as listed by ls

CD-R is no longer readable on the ThinkPad laptop it was burnt on.

Samsung NC10 NetBook
* It can be read on its external USB DVD/CD Writer drive

In fact the NetBook is now reluctant to handle this CD-R as well.

I will now treat that CD-R as "suspect".

HTH,


Ian
