Bootable Disk Issues

[Ado]

First things first, nice program.

 

Now to the good stuff... bootable CDs.

 

Ive had to modify a minipe cd to include newer network card drivers. Last time I did this, I followed the tutorial at http://apcmag.com/how_to_create_a_bootable_xp_sp3_cd.htm and all worked well.

 

BUT... if I try to do the same tutorial with imgburn, it doesnt work. I either get boot errors or I get a flashing cursor on a black screen.

 

Ideas?

 

Cheers,

 

Ado

Hi and welcome to the forum, Ado!

 

You should ensure that these settings are changed/enabled in the Build modes settings.

 

 

Also that this is added (from your guide).

Click the “Image file” radio button and Browse for the image1.bin file which BBIE extracted. Then under Advanced, tick “Enable expert settings”. Change “Kind of emulation” to “No emulation. Make sure that “Load segment of sectors” is set to “07C0” and change “Number of loaded sectors” to 4.

I got it to work, thank you.

 

I now get a tstsetup.sif is corrupt or missing, status 14.

 

Not sure whats causing it but I'll keep at it.

 

Thanks again.

I was wondering if there is a complete guide on how to make a bootable windows disc from a .iso on my computer.

ISO's would already be bootable if they're meant to be.

Those options are available in Build mode not Write mode.

 

According to the Ubuntu instructions page their IMG files are for writing to flash media like a USB stick, not to a CD.

They have ISO files for download if you want a bootable live CD.
