Abstract
A method and apparatus for making a single CD-ROM disc useable on computers having unrelated operating systems or for multi-media platforms, specifically, wherein the two different operating systems are Hierarchical File System (HFS) used by Macintosh computers and MS-DOS which is the operating system used by IBM and compatible personal computers. The resulting compact disc is in ISO 9660 format which is a standard of the International Standards Organization which describes a logical format for organizing data on a Compact Disc Read Only Memory (CD-ROM). In this manner, it is possible to, for example, store two versions of a program on the same CD-ROM, one for execution on Macintosh computers and the other for execution on IBM PC and compatible computers. Thus, data which is to be stored on an ISO 9660 formatted disc can be sent from the producer or supplier of the data to a compact disc presser on a single magnetic medium such as a Bernoulli removable cartridge disk under a single operating system partition.
