I have an OSRCD for the RaQ4r burned from the Cobalt iso and it works
fine. I follow the instructions at
http://www.cobaltfaqs.com/wiki/index.php/CustomOSRCD and all goes well
under my RedHat 8.0 workstation. Tarred everything to a directory and
placed the packages in the bundles directory, then created the iso.
Transferred it to a Windows machine to burn because no CDR on the Linux
currently. Burned without problem and boots without problem, but the RaQ
never sees it. The indicator light on the NIC of the PC with the CD is
*not* lit. I put the original OSRCD back in and boot up, the light comes
on and the RaQ starts to load.

Any ideas why my custom OSRCD is not working across the LAN?
