How to I convert self bootable files to non-self bootable?

Why do I want to create a non self-bootable emu/app?

There is a special format called gigarec, *exclusive to some plextor drives* that allows you to burn over one gig of information on a single cdr.

The limitation of the format is that it must be a single session which means you can't have a self boot disc.

So I need someone to explain to me, what files I need to check and edit, how to build the iso, and what programs I'll need.I need it so the emu/app single session and boots off a boot-disc instead of being a 2 session self bootable. Maybe someone could make a little package for me. Thanks for the help

Once someone helps me, I'll try burning in gigarec format and post the results.

I not sure, but if you just burn them on as a data disc and use dchakker (i think you can disc swap with it, ie use it as a boot disc)

here is a guide,

I think it is very unlikely that it will work unless this gigarec format is the same as the GD ROM format.

I haven't burnt a DC image in years but was in on the homebrew scene from the beginning before self booting was possible, so I do remember a few details that may help you.

Firstly, the IP.BIN file needs to be an unscrambled one. The one that you inject into a self boot image is always a scrambled version of the file.

Next, you don't need to create an image file for non-self boot DC stuff and you can use multi-session discs.

To make a non-self boot copy of any thing you just burn all the files required to a CD using any CD burning software with the unscrambled IP.BIN in the root directory. you do not need the audio file or anything complicated.

Ok sounds good, i'm going try it soon.
