Edited the minirt26 file but am afraid I misunderstand the method of modifying the file.

Firstly, I have a USB HDD addressed as sda3 which I intend to load with the CD data (tohd=/dev/sda3).

To supply the corrected CD for USB 2.0, I intended to modify the minirt26 file and burn a new CD.

Having located the correct area and entered the new line in place of the old, I attempted to save the modified file.

I cannot save the file due to encoding mismatch.

I re-checked the procedure outlined in previous post and find that I need to understand the "loop" function. I do not have any "loop" program in my arch linux.

Perhaps you can guide me further?
