 Thanks.

Ha ha! 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
