The iso image already is bootable so you should be able to just use the iso
cd. I've just downloaded nero to try out on win2000 (because the idiots at
Adaptec don't feel they should have to support their software with win2k),
but with easy cd creator under win98 you just double click on the iso file
and it does the rest. With nero I believe that the option to make a
bootable cd is if you copy raw data and specify an 'image file' (such as
cdrom.img found under the /images directory) to be burned onto the root
directory. The idea behind the iso image being premade is so that you can
just put that file on a disk and all the preparation work has been done for
you.

hey,
I just downloaded the ISO files for Mandrake 7.1 (650MB and 340MB) now
how exactly do I burn them? I'm using Nero software which give's you an
option to burn CD (ISO) or CD (Boot), etc. my system supports the boot
from CD, I'm just not sure how burning an ISO file on a CD will make it
bootable...
cheers,
paul.
