I followed these steps when when I downloaded the file lxcr-lbt-2_0.iso
from the Linuxcare site:
Downloaded the file and the MD5 checksum to my Windows/Downloads
directory
Downloaded the file and MD5 checksum to /home/gaw/ directory in Linux
Verified checksums of both downloaded files
Copied file in Windows to a CD-R disk using Adaptec's Easy CD Creator
ISO9660 format
Copied file in Linux to a CD-R disk using Xcdroast ISO9660 file format
Verified MD5 checksum on both CD copies.
Checked CMOS settings on both Linux boxes to be sure they were set to
boot from CD
Attemted to boot both machines from Linuxcare Emergency Rescue CD.
Both attempts failed.
Read SuSE 7.2 Pro Applications Manual pages on Xcdroast.
Read CD-Writing HOWTO.
I still don't know what I did wrong. Anyone care to offer a
step-by-step on how to get this done?
