Problems when making selfbooting image.

Chankast made me dig up my good ol' Dreamcast (hello old buddy old friend, why did I leave you in the closet for soo long ).

Ok, here's my problem. It's seem to have been too long since I've been using it. After I've dumped an image to my PC (yes, yes.... I know what I'm doing, done it hundred of times in the past).

So, now I got a working iso on my hdd (tested on the console). BUT when I try to make it selfbootable the iso-file seems to get corrupt. I've tested every single program/guide I've found, same result. Yes I know how to convert iso/cdi/bin/whatever to other formats. The only thing I can think of is that it would be an WindosXP issue. I've done it in the past and it was a piece of cake. Why (oh why ) does the image become corrupt? I can't even mount it with virtual-daemon, or burn it for that matter.

I guess sooner or later Chankast will support utopia, so it's not a big deal. It's just so freaking annoying. It gets really annoying when you use some of the emulators on the DC (nes on DC... cool) where you first have to use Utopia, then the cd with the emu and THEN switch to the cd with roms :P

Specs: Got 5 computers.... 4 with WinXP and one with FreeBSD installed. Any selfboot programs for unix? Any clues anyone?

/sorry for my bad english..... you should see my german
