I am fairly sure I did but I will double check when I get home.

I am able to do a CD-Backup it's only the mkisofs functions that fail.

When I try to check the session size or try to start an ISO burn,
it doesn't even start to make the image.iso file.  I have tried setting
the host drive to different partitions and tried putting different files
into the session. All have the same error.

I reinstalled CD-ISO to make sure it hadn't been corrupted since I last used
it.  I have also recently swapped from to a larger HD and changed my partition
sizes so at first I suspected that but the test with TOS and 1.17 rules that
out.

I don't know, if mkisofs.prg can be run from the command line
