Trouble is, this doesn't work for a hybrid CD for certain versions of
burning software on the PC. SOme versions of Easy CD Creator would tell you
it was an invalid file system, and burn it anyway, but you couldn't then
boot off of the CD. Nero has a type called Hybrid, and doesn't care. Later
version of Easy CD Creator do the same.
