Entity Bill Planey spoke thus:

I want to make a CUSTOM CD (not .dmg or image FILE) and have the CD, when
mounting on a Macintosh system, open its top-level directory and display the
window with the custom icons and picture background that I have created.

Mac doesn't have all those security holes Windows does. The consolation is,
Mac CDs are so much easier to open by doubleclicking the mounted disk icon.

The Mac OS X install disk opens to a subdirectory of the disk.

I thought it was just a matter of setting the windows up to appear as you want them, generating an .dmg then burning the disk. Doesn't finder magic do the rest?
