Did I ever tell you that there's a genie in my PC. :~D Well as I said it must be my buggy system [or the genie] working in my favour for once. I actually created the img from a drive connected to a USB unit with dd, and whats more is I have no idea how to pipe dd to mkisofs so it can't be that. The only thing I can think of is maybe I used mkisofs. But the problem there is I don't know how to use it. I have always been happy with dd. Anyway sorry for the bad advice, at least you can see where I got it from, regardless of how weird it may seem. Terribly sorry Guolin please ignore that piece of bad advise, I will have to investigate why this worked for me. It is the first time I have done this as well and it worked! So I thought I could help you! I will wait for my next recovery job next week sometime and c if I can replicate it. anyway cheers for now -- Chadley - Linux Rocks Welcome to my world. ****************************************************************** This mail is free for distribution.
