Iso9660 Joliet

[TECH198]

Can Toast 10x create ISO9960 Joliet images or only ISO9660 images only? Reason i ask is a have a whole bunch of Windows CD's i wish to use Toast on Mac to image, however ISO9660 format looses certain filenames due not not being backward compatible... Toast produces an error about these files going to be removed.

Yes, Toast can use Joliet. In the Data window, with ISO 9660 set, is a Select button, which brings up new ISO 9960 window with 3 tabs: Files, Layout, Settings. In this Settings pane, you may specify the extensions to the ISO 9660 file system. Joliet is grouped under Naming, as it relates to file names.

 

If you copy a physical disc directly to an image file (Copy window), then Toast will copy that disc as-is, which whatever filesystem and specification it has. Note: For multisession discs, only the first session will get copied this way; in that case it may be better to do a Finder copy of all sessions and make new image as single session.
