bootable CD error while installing 5.2..
Hello List, I downloaded 4 cd iso images from freebsd ftp site, bootableonly, disk1, disk2 and miniinstall. I drag bootableonly.iso file to the list and writing bootable cd with easy cd creater, two files are here in the list, bootcat.bin, bootimg.bin. Writing is okay but cd is not booting. No boot emule message is appearing when restarting computer and message stays there until I close the pc.. Winxp bootable cd is working as expected, but my first and second attemp to make a bootable freebsd cd failed. My pc's bios is capable of cd booting. Hard disk is 20GB Maxtor. Where am I doing wrong?

RE: bootable CD error while installing 5.2..
When you burn the mini.iso file to cd your burner software has to be able to uncompress the .iso file and write and the uncompressed data as an data cd. You may need a MS/Windows program that can burn ISO files to cdrom. I used Nero from www.nero.com . The downloadable nero demo work just fine to do what you have to do to create your FBSD mini install cdrom. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of hay Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 6:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: bootable CD error while installing 5.2..

RE: bootable CD error while installing 5.2..
Sinan, It sounds like you are not burning the images to cd correctly. There should be an option in easy cd creator to burn a image. Something like: File-Record CD from CD Image... Then select the .iso file...and burn It sounds like you are trying to create a new bootable cd. The FreeBSD iso's are already bootable when burned. All you need to do is burn the image. Once burned, your cd should contain many files and folders.
