Pop in disc one, open Disk Utility then drag the disc one icon to the left hand column of Disk Utility, pop in a DVD and hit burn. Repeat disc two.

Hi there,

You don't specify which version of OS X you're trying to copy, but I found this article of use, when I made a backup copy of my Tiger retail disk.

Hope this helps. :Cool:

Does the burn button on the top of the Disk Utility pane show up after you drag the disc icon to the left hand pane and pop in a blank CD+R disc?
