To make your own bootable CD, I would say just copy the contents of boot disk on to the CD and burn it, (never done it myself) but I think it should work?!?!?

Good luck

Wrong. Wrong. WrongWrongWrong. A CD is made bootable by a disk image stored in a file called boot.img on a CD...and there is an enumerator called bootcat.bin. Scared yet? Good. Not the easy part...most current CD burning utils (Adaptev V4, WinOnCD 3.7, and Nero) do it automatically, making the img file from a floppy disk. You just need a bootable floppy (NOT, however, a Win98 floppy...they don't work right without being patched...do some searches). It's really easy, actually. Just be aware that that image file becomes your A: drive when you boot to the CD...the CD is your CD drive, and you still have to load drivers for it.
