Ok, it means that the BIOS does not identify the file system on the CD (or at least the small part of the file system it actually understand - finding the floppy boot image there), either because of the file system itself or because they use different options for the boot image floppy (with boot menu, without etc etc... ) and the BUIOS simply has a bug in supporting one of them. > 3) WTF ?!?! > > > >does the BIOS recognise there is a CD and try to > > boot it but something fails afterwards or does the BIOS bnever attempts > > to boot the CD? is the media original or burned in both cases and have > > you tried to burn another copy? can you check which file system the > > images hold - ISO9660, > > ISO9660 Do you say that because this is the flag you pass to mount? because this is the flag passed to mount for ALL of them... ;-) Truth be told though I don't know how to find out which except mounting the CD somewhere, copying all the files to a HD and burning a 'pure' ISO9660 + Rock Ridge bootable image using mkisofs from that...
