[parisc-linux] Burning CD Images difficulties: revisited

[Jeffo]

Hello all!
I hope this is the right place for posting such a question:

- I´ve tried MANY times  (5) burning an PA-RISC image to a bootable CD.
Couldn´t make my system
boot from the CD though...the image I´m talking about is this one:
http://pateam.esiee.fr/cd-images/palinux-0.9.3.iso

I have a 712/60 HP station, with an external SCSI CD-rom drive. The drive is
at ID "scsi.3.0".
I do the boot search after the POST routine, it finds my SCSI drive, its
brand and everything else.

When I try to boot from the CD the station simply does nothing. It tryes to
boot and returns
to the BOOT_ADMIN screen. ONCE I could get a message like "loading the
stuff, etc....OPS, KERNEL something".
And only ONCE...in one of the first CDs.

I did an extensive search on the Internet regarding this subject, and used
all hints found for
the burning software (yes, I´m burning on XP, unfortunately all linuxes I´ve
found doens´t
have CD writers)...used Nero 5.5, CDRWin 4.0B and Blindwrite. None of them
seem to burn this image
correctly. And I say that with the knowledge after burning many, many
applications, games, etc
onto CD-R. Protected or not. For AIX, for Windows, for Solaris.
Weird...

The simptoms are:

- If I load the CD on a windows machine, everything seems to be fine,
DESPITE all filenames
being in CAPS... (bad sign?)
- On the 712/60 it won´t boot.
- After booting into HP-UX, if I try to mount the CD it takes a looong time
and then the OS finally mounts it, but all filenames are capitalised AND
SOMETIMES, the ";1" suffix is appended to every filename. I´ve seen
something about that on Nero, but on tabs that you simply cannot change.
(something like "doesn´t append ;1 on...")
- I contacted a friend and co-worker which is a "Linux" guy, but he wasn´t
willing to help much..
- Things that I´ve read on the net like "Search the iso or the CD for the
#8000 sector and see if the MAGIC word is on there (CD001) and IT IS in all
Cds I´ve searched.

I am REALLY interested in putting this thing to run up on my HP
station....but I´m having a hard time...

Maybe someone could give some help?

Thanks for now.
