live cd

[bonecrusher]

To clerify.

I want to boot from Just cd to os on cd.

Tried Make bootable CD. and then tried make data then add bootable image to CD but the size is only 1kb. go figure.

I have tried Nero 5.5 to . FYI I am force to create put in a floppy before I burn to get windows sysem files off.. I guess. I did last night and it booted right from good but to a fake A:drive.
Nero reads this: PLease insert bootalbe dics into selected drive.. yad aya yada ... click next to make sure your medium bootable the same way your floppy is.
To create a bootbl dics for your os R>click you floppy disk (that I dont have here .. but I do have on another PC. floppy that is.) select format in the popup menu. Copy system files is checked... ......... ... . and go ahead and make a bootable cd for dos. <- sarcaim.... sy.

For the LAST TIME:

YOU ARE NOT MAKING A BOOT DISK!

Sorry didn't mean to yell. But please follow the posts here. You burn an image (DO N O T make a 'boot disk then burn image or make a boot disk and add files or whatever. JUST BURN AN IMAGE. that is all and only all......

you will :

do what?

lets all repeat:


BURN an IMAGE

Yes, an IMAGE !

only an image

not a boot disk.

not a boot disk and a file and an image.,


just


BURN IMAGE


that is ALL


OKAY. sorry. But I really do hope you got it this time.

By the way you would probably be better off using Alcohol 120% to burn your image. (It doesn't even give you an option to make a boot disk(HA) so you wouldn't have that problem at least. ) I have heard that Nero may give some ppl probs when burning images (but that isn't what your problem was...)
To get this (and please do!) go to:

good luck..sounds like you'll need it.
