One can copy a CD image from HD to CD by:
cdrecord -dev=3D0,2,0 -speed=3D12 -data <file name>.iso
for a data iso on my Thinkpad

One can likewise make a bootable floppie by:
dd if=3D/dev/fd0 of=3Dboot.img bs=3D8192

So, how soes one make a bootable CD?
cdrecord -dev=3D0,2,0 -speed=3D12 boot.img <file name>.iso

I know well at least I think boot.img has to be in there somewhere.  So h=
ow=20
does one do this?

Thanks
