Re: ElTorito and Roxio

My personal experience is with mkisofs, Ahead Nero, GoldenHawk cdrwin,
and Adaptec/Roxio CD Creator, and my personal experience was that Roxio
wouldn't even let me create it without a real 2.88 floppy drive, which
I didn't have, so I gave up.  GoldenHawk and mkisofs have no problems.

You might want to try creating the ISO image with mkisofs, then you can
still burn it with Roxio CD Creator.  I never got that part to work with
Roxio, you already got farther than I did with Roxio.  I think GoldenHawk
may have a free (limited to 1x recording) version that can do it, if you
don't have Linux or a Windows mkisofs (or Nero, though I have not tried
this particular operation with Nero).
