RE: CD-ROM Discs

The CUME is C4300510. I, too, have made the mistake of burning "files" when
I should have burned "images"; wasted a stack of CDs that time, but
hopefully I learned from my error. I'm pretty sure that I did the latter
(burned "images") this time. Using WRKOPTVOL I can see the label and drill
down into the CD.

I have no idea if this is relevant.......

What is the CUME? Is it an .iso file? If so, did you burn it as as image?
Only reason I ask a potentially dum question is I have run into this with a
friend who burned an .iso as a file. Won't work.

I would think that CD-R and CD-RW would be interchangeable.

I have the last CUME for V5R1 (please, hold down the laughter, some of us
are trying to sleep) on my PC. Our optical drive is a type 6321 on a

Model

250. I used CD-R media to copy the disc images to CD. Either I did the
dupe disc wrong (always a possibility) or CD-R is not a compatible media
type. Anyway, the CPYPTFCVR command comes back saying that "No PTFs on
device OPT01 met the selection criteria." Even when I use SELECT(*ALL).

Now

that isn't reasonable so there is a problem.



If it is the media type, what is the correct media type, and where would I
get it? Staples, Office Depot, and Office Max only carry CD-RW and CD-R.
If I fubared it, I'll try again.



Thanks.
