caki is on a distinguished road
1. Mini images are images that only contain the data needed to fool the protection into leting you play without the original. They are useful for conserving hard drive space.

2. Mount the mini image, all options in daemontools for emulation on (shouldnt need this), use SFNightmare to disable CD drives or w/e (I dont need this on my computer), run Sr7.Stop, set the compability mode of BFII.exe to windows 2000, and then you can play... Also, it might be possible that you downloaded the mini image for the wrong version, so double check that (English, German...)

Battlefront 2 works fine on my computer with:
Mini image Mounted on Daemontools 4

Antiblacklists taken care of since I manually tweaked my registry to deny SC7 admin rights a while ago...

BFII.exe compability set to Windows 2000

3. Maybe yes, maybe no. I never tried it. I will when I need it, but so far I dont, so I wont try it

4. DPM is Data Precision Measuring. It is something you need to get from the original CD when backing it up in order to have a working backup. SC7 checks the DPM of the disc. The DPM is stored in the .MDS file along with some other tidbits about the CD.
