Apple Releases Security Update for Jaguar

Mac OS X Security Update 2002-08-23 is available at the Apple Knowledge Base." This appears to me to be similar to the update of a few days ago, but for 10.2 instead of 10.1.

    When are they going to release a patch so you can burn hybrid cd's like you could in 10.0?

      Hopefully it's an honest, "Well shit!" error on Apple's part rather than intentionally stripping a feature --- they did redo the dialog that pops-up upon insertion of a blank optical volume.

      You [b]should[b] be able to regain the functionality in the interim by nabbing 'mkisofs' out of the Darwin tree and building a little AppleScript Studio app around it. mkisofs will write a ISO9660/HFS+ hybrid file system as a UDIF --- if I remember the manpage properly.
