Nick, thanks, but I'm trying to copy a copy of a copy, etc. (without 
a democratic mainstream media we have -- as Jello Biafra has 
suggested -- BECOME THE MEDIA). Anyway, I reckon that if it's copied 
before, many times, shouldn't be too difficult. It was suggested that 
even though Toast's Prefs are set to capture to a drive with a lot of 
room, that the boot drive shouldn't be too crowded. I don't know why.

I will check out MTR, but I have Toast 6 and want it to work.

Still trying...
