I'm sure I used Nero when I did this. I'm also sure that if
ImgBurn ("Image Burn") cannot do it then it should be renamed :-)

I think the sequence with Nero is something like:
 Start->Programs->wherever Nero Burning ROM lives

 Cancel the initial screen that helps you determine
 whether you are burning a CD or DVD or whatever

 Recorder->Burn Image
 Select "All Files" (make sure yours is called .img or .bin)

 On the "Foreign Image Settings" leave it as "Data Mode 1" and
 tick "Raw Data"

 Try a CD-RW until you find the right incantation.

I would download one of the Freeware CDs from the HP VMS website
and try that image, so at least you know you have a good ODS-2
image at the start.

An RRD42 will not (IIRC) cope with a CD-RW ... so you may need
to use the Yamaha to start with (assuming it will).
