10.3: Create a system install DVD
Authored by: mozart11 on Dec 29, '03 01:21:41PM

I made the DVD so my son can install Panther on his B&W G3. But can a regular CD Rom player mount a DVD cd? All my computers have DVD readers in them, so I haven't been able to test this yet. Anyone know.

Thanks

a DVD is not a CD. a CD-only drive will not read a DVD disk.

Nope. DVD's are completely different from CDs. They require a smaller laser to be read. A CD player is going to have no idea what to do with a DVD disk.

Is there a way to make a dvd out of Panther upgrade disks? I made the .dmg but when I went to move the files I don't have the folders list. I am guessing it's because I have upgrade disks
