Disable Finder Auto-Opening of Mounted External Drives

I recently made a DMG of OSX 10.5.6 off of the original Apple Install DVD via Disk Utility. I then restored it to a partition on my PCI ExpressCard to act as an installer and boot from it when needed.

The problem I am having is that when I rebook, Finder opens as if I had inserted the actual optical disc. To solve this problem, you need to open Terminal and execute:

sudo bless -folder /Volumes/X

Where X is the drive name.
