Just copy it w/o any extra settings. At least, that's what I did and it
worked.

No special measures are necessary. The CD is a simple one-data-track-only 
CD. You can copy it with whatever program you want to use, under whatever 
platform you like, PROVIDED that your software copies the complete data 
track (do NOT copy it file by file, by selecting or dragging files from the 
CD into a compilation, thereby creating a "virtual" image, otherwise the CD 
can't boot anymore.)

Burn the Official Debian CD

[Shao Zhang]

Hi,
I have got the official debian 2.1 and would like to make a copy of
it. I am wondering if I need any special
software in order to make them still bootable. Since the machine where
the burner connected has got Windoze, I have got no idea how to do this.

Thx for any help in advance.

Shao.
