I am trying to run a distro of linux from a CD, which this was designed for. I can make an image of the ISO with win image, but upon ejecting the CD, I am asked to make the CD readable and I am wondering if this corrupts the disk for Linux? It asks if I want to make the CD so it can be read by most operating systems. It does not mention Linux, just the MS stuff. And I thought that perhaps I should not format the CD, but win image seems to not be able to write to the blank CD unless I format it first. Thanks for any help. "Live long and prosper", O.
