MacMonster Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Hi All, I have managed to get hold of the JaS 10.4.8 image in an attempt to run OSX of my laptop. However I can't get the thing onto a bloody disk!!! I have tried using Nero Burning ROM, Alcohol 120% and DVD Santa. I have also tried both supported Disc formats for my DVD Drive (Ricoh DVD+rw RW8165) but I cannot get the image to disk. I want to do a native install as I do not understand any of this VMWare stuff no matter how much I read it. Can anyone help with a suggestion or two? Could anyone send me a burnt disk in the post? :s Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49167-cant-burn-image/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacMonster Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated. I have trying to at least get this image to disk for the last four days now and it's becoming super annoying. Again I have tried both DVD+R (Doesn't even begin write) and DVD+RW (fails at 32% with "illegal disk" error message) these are the only two formats supported by my writer. Is there anything I can do?

Try MagicISO (chek in any torrent site) it can work if your image is correct and your hard drive have enough space for the temporary image. From toolbar: File/open (your image) and then Tools/Burn CD/DVD with ISO...

Sabr Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 MagicISO, as stated above, or PowerISO will burn the image for you. If that doesn't work, you may have downloaded a corrupt version of OSx86.

NinjaTails Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 It's also possible that you have a busted DVD burner, mine was. Try getting someone with a laptop that has a DVD burner on it to come over to your house and you can network them up and burn it. (In Windows, go to Network connections and go to 'Set up home or small office network' on the sidebar) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49167-cant-burn-image/#findComment-352360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffy Jeff Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Hi, I tried to burn a cdr image (uphuck 10.4.9 v1.3) with MagicISO, but the damn thing says non-bootable. Any ideas?

Jeffy Jeff Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Hi xtremeskier97, Do you mean to convert? or simply to rename the file extension? Thanks, Jeff Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49167-cant-burn-image/#findComment-389955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnytluxury Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 ImageBurn kicks ass, and its free. Itll burn all your images (including the rare used yet oft seen *.cdr image), and even try to find a firmware upgrade, but approcah that one w/ caution, if your burners working fine, you dont want to mess it up by upgrading the firmware.

xtremeskier97 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Just rename it with the .iso extension. No need to convert anything. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49167-cant-burn-image/#findComment-389960 Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachwoody Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Extremeskier and JeffyJeff: can I rename from win xp? As the original file has no extension? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49167-cant-burn-image/#findComment-391936 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtremeskier97 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 ALL files have extensions...whether you can see them or not is another story. In WinXP...open My Computer, click Tools in the menu, click Folder Options. Click the "View" tab and uncheck hide extensions for known file types. Click apply and OK. Then go back to your file and change the .cdr to .iso. Burn.
