Question on Nero

L

Lori

I know this is not a Nero newsgroup, but I was hoping someone that uses it
could give me some input.

I just burnt a new XP Slipstreamed CD (XP Pro & SP2). Everything seemed to
go fine except when I got to the label page. The instructions I have show
Volume label as "ISO 9660: (Name of XP CD). Then there is a box checked
that says "Also use the ISO 9660 text for Joliet". My screen on label page
in Nero 6 has either automatic naming or manual naming as choices. There is
no box to check for using the ISO 9660 text for Joliet so I just overwrote
the name in the automatic box with the name of my XP CD. Is this correct?
Should I have used the manual naming option and typed in the same thing for
ISO 9660 and Joliet file systems? I am asking because when I overwrote the
automatic name, and the CD was done, my drive disappeared from Windows and I
had to shut down & restart to be able to eject the CD. I did try burring
one disk with the manual naming and I was able to eject the CD after it
finished. I know I have problems on my system because I installed with a
slipstreamed CD that had errors on it so I have been trying to make another
but I am just not familiar enough with Nero and CD Burning in general to
really know what I am doing.

I used Autostreamer to compile the CD and then used Nero - see autostreamer
instructions.

I too used Autostreamer and Nero, you virtually don't have to think at all
through the entire process.

The name is provided as "NEW" in NERO. What you're referring to is the
filesystem used. IE ISO 9660, and Joliet. You can change "NEW" to pretty
much anything. No spaces, AND some keyboard characters cannot be used.

If the CD burned has any long filenames (over 8.3 strategy) or folder names,
use Joliet as well.

You should close the session as part of a choice in the burning process
preselection.

The CD has to be ejected first, and reinserted for it to be read in the same
windows session. Nero should have this an option someplace for it to
auto-eject upon completion of burning. Will do this automatically if you
check Nero to verify after writing.

Am using Nero 5.5, so your case may be slightly different.
