Well I have tried for a while now with disc utility to make a disc image of a cd. It works just fine with the OS X cds I have. Well all the cds with OS X stuff on them. But I just tried it with a cd made with OS 9 stuff on it. And I keep getting a heap of errors and it will not work.

Can I make a disc image of a OS 9/classic CD on an intel Mac? And if so how do I do it? Cause it's not working for me.

And yes I also tried to copy the CD to the hard drive and then ZIP the resultant folder. But that folder will not open on OS X for me. I open the folder and it just resets the finder.

So is there any solution here?

Did you try File > New > Disk Image From Device/Volume Name?
