Hi Roberto,

Which recording software did you use to write the cd's?

When I recorded my netbsd cds, I realized that some cd writing software 
has problems with those isos (e.g. Nero could't write pkg2.iso, but WinOnCD 
could...)

Maybe try writing with another piece of recording software...

regards
Marc
