Most cdrom writing programs that I've seen on Windows *do* have an option to do 'image copying' or something like that. If your friend has copied the "files" of the original disk on his disk and then used his program to write the files on the disk produced, then he quite probably messed up all the RockRidge information present in the original disk :/ - Giorgos Keramidas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
