How to transfer data FAST?

If the CD-R is on a controller RSTS understands (MSCP is the only option I can think of for this) and is formatted with the RSTS file structure, and has a boot block in sector zero, it should all just work. I haven't personally done this but I'm pretty sure it was done by one of my friends. I even have some weird "hybrid file system" hacks in RSTSFLX to let you create a CD-R that's partly ISO and partly RTST, and bootable. I believe that was used and shown to work, though I never saw the results. If you have the files, RSTSFLX can make a bootable disk image for you, so you can try this yourself. paul
