when creating asr disks from back-up, the program asked
for insertion of a floppy disk. after insertion, program
said it will take 3 days to complete. i aborted in favour
of using a formatted cd rw(700mgs)to speed things up.the
program began writing to the cd rw. when it (cd rw )was
full program indicated that this media was a non-
removable disk and quit.I know it wants floppies but how
many,over three days? you can't write your asr backup to
hard disk due to the fact that if you do asr repartitions
your harddrive.it won't use cd rw's . whats the answer?
or do i just take a pass?
