I am using toast to create a backup of the Panther CDs haveing only the built in CD buring in the PB I decided to make a disc image. After making the image (file on the desktop ending in .toast) I mount the disc image but it mounts 2 CD images. one is called "Mac OS X install Disc 1" and the other is called "Mac OS X install" This double image mounting happens all the time but I thought it was a bug and just ejected one of them - but now the images have different names ugh is there a fix for this? Is this normal?

If you put in the original disc and click "Copy" in Toast it copies an image to your HD and when that proces it finished, Toast will ask you for an empty CD and it copies the image to the empty CD. Easy enough, no?

Holy s**t, I any truely embarresed. I've been using a Mac for years and had always thought that I needed dual drives to do a disc copy. Thanks for the heads up. Still though, I have no idea why when I mount a disc image that there are two of them?

hehe,

If you leave in the original CD and you mount the image while the CD is still in the drive the OS will add a "1" to the name of the mounted image because to "discs" can't have the same name. Could that be it ?
