Re: CD-ROM Discs

Jerry,

    CD-R media are fine so that's not the issue.
    When the media is in the drive on the 250 and you do WRKOPTVOL do 
you see the volume? Can you drill down into it?  You should be able to.

    Are the images you have .BIN or .ISO format?  I have had issues in 
the past putting the .BINs onto plastic. Sometimes renaming .BIN to .ISO 
it works but sometimes that makes a mess.  How did you burn them (You 
don't have a .bin file on the CD-R do you? )
