hi all,
just to inform you that i made a mistake when i mentioned about burning
the i386cd.iso into the contents of the CD. with Nero the iso image file
was not burned in correctly and so even though the cd was bootable with
boot-big.fs i doubt it was usable for installing the full OS. until i
find out how Nero can burn in the correct mapping directories of the
image iso file it would not be possible to burn a cd using nero.
the correct or easier method would be to get FILE2CD.EXE from
http://www.goldenhawk.com/freeware.htm under the MSDOS downloads.
just run file2cd on all the iso files and burn them into the CD and you
would see the directories placed properly as opposed to using Nero.
regards
Vince
