Did you choose Joliet from settings tab? I like Allow Mac Names better.
This way filenames on ISO9660 portion are not truncated on Mac. Maybe Toast
3.0.5 does not have Joliet as a selection. If so, either choose "Allow
Macintosh Names" or upgrade to Toast 3.5.6.

Toast is the easiest program to create hybrid CD, althought not as rich in
features as some PC programs (e.g., copy protection, etc...).

Hope this helps,
