You should not copy the CDROM image to a partition (IE: /dev/hd?1).
Try again, with /dev/hdc instead of /dev/hdc1
FYI, a quick linux primer on IDE devices:
/dev/hda = Primary IDE controller, MASTER drive /dev/hdb = Primary IDE controller, SLAVE drive /dev/hdc = Secondary IDE controller, MASTER drive /dev/hdd = Secondary IDE controller, SLAVE drive
while: /dev/hda1 = The first partition on the hda drive
Most computers are built with the PC hard drive as the primary master, aka /dev/hda
and the PC CDROM drive is the secondary master, aka /dev/hdc
which is why I used the command syntax above.
Good Luck.
