To be honest, after combing over a few of the PDF's in PsyQ, they don't do a real good job about explaining it to be honest. Even in their CDGen 1.0 Windows 3.1 application, they don't even show system.cnf or any executable at the beginning of the disc.
But I did find a rather obscure rant about not letting people use the CDGen burning stations for the cha-cha-baby?
To be honest it's rather comical, but at the same time, I didn't see anything specifying where or how the layout should be. The only .cti example I saw was in regards to XA interleaving, and it was a .cti with only a single .str and .xa file, no executables whatsoever. It obviously stands to reason that putting the executable after the system.cnf at the beginning logical as system.cnf would fit in part of just one rotation of the spiral, and the executable following immediately after, requiring really no seeking. I guess they just assumed they'd know to do this. If I'm wrong and one of these PDF's though do state otherwise I wish I knew which one did.

I've checked too and that doesn't seem to be explained indeed. To be fair, it's not that big of a deal anyway but that could have been added as a small note still. These paragraphs in the 2nd screenshot are hilarious though
