Yes, it's vnormal that the CDR is ro..

I've booted the CD w/o any bootflag in R5 to the $ prompt.
, it asks for the date/time and displays the devices like above
(DISK0$DIA0 but DU3) and asks if that list is correct, yes it is.
After that I've issued:
$ backup/image/verify dua3:vms073.b/save disk0$dia0:
(dia0 only doesn't work)
I've get a long list about many files (from the cdrom)
and SYSTEM-F-VOLINF, volume is not software enabled
A while ago I've reformated an tested the 3 DSS
I disks with the firmware on them, the disks are all empty.
I think here is a step missing, Do I have to initialize them first?
The disks are ok, the veryfy programs on them saying that....
