Hey Sergey!

Easy for you to say.  ;-)

I am betting it is too fast a burn speed.  I hear 4x is the best speed for
targetting older CD-ROMs.  Also CDs used to be 650M so that also might be an
issue since I believe CDs are now 700M?  It's been awhile but I do remember
that lower burn speeds made a big difference.

I used to do that without the virtual.  It worked great and was way faster
than CD installs.  I still do it this way except with SSDs.

 SS> this is the design!

An excellent one.

Life is good,
Maurice
