RE: [cobalt-users] Re: Qube2 - lots of questions

["Jerry Farquhar" <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don't know much about Mac's, but on the PC side of the street I've
successfully used Adaptec's Easy CD Creator Deluxe to turn ISO images into
bootable Linux CD's for many distro's.

Do you know anyone with a PC & CD Burner?  The Adaptec software is extremely
easy!

Any and all software, probably. Linux does, I think, use a different block
size but I don't know which. Of course, there are some easy guesses: either
512-bytes or 2K-bytes. I don't know which one's right, but I'll give you
80% probability that one of them is.

There is a detailed guide on burning boot CD-ROMs for RedHat Linux
somewhere on their site (I'm sure other distros have their own,
almost-exactly-alike guides too), and the general process and concept
should be the same for yours.

Note that you already have an "image", read: exact picture. You want to
burn this to disc raw, with no changes whatsoever.

That's all I know; good luck.
