Could you be more specific? What you are asking lies in my area of knowledge and experience though I dunno about Linux. But the ideas are the same. The boot record in the USB/hard disk are fundamentally different from that found on CD/DVD. Moreover only ISO can be burnt on CD. What do you really want? Why don't you dump an ISO image to a USB stick? But it would not boot... -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech http://gayatri-hitech.com [email protected] _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
