I just downloaded FC2 the other day and have since burned the iso's to four bootable cd's with Roxio. As much as I would like, my system won't read the discs on boot. And yes, I did choose Bootable CD when I started the project.

When I installed FC1 I somehow managed to create a bootable floppy. I did this by using an old purchased copy of a Redhat 6.1 cd. I remember using Rawrite and I somehow had it derive the boot.img file from one of the iso's I downloaded for FC1.

Does anyone know how I can create a new boot floppy with the FC2 iso's I downloaded? If not, is there anywhere out there I can download the files to make the FC2 floppy?

Thanks

The floppy boot images are located in the /images directory and you can use the linux dd command or the DOS / windows rawrite, winrawite utilities to create the floppy. Check out the readme text files located in the directories. There is also documentation on Redhat's website.

BTW you want to select the "create CD from image" instead of create bootable CD.

Actually Fc2 does not have images to boot from floppy. The image file that was used to do this in Fc1 is in the /image directory but it is now to large to fit onto a floppy. I believe they recommend booting from a usb device with these images. The CDs should boot if created with "create CD from image," or something similar; creating a bootable CD is something else. If this still does not work, you will have to make the changes in BIOS. Most likely this would require changing the boot order so that it tries to boot from CD before the hard drive.

I use this for burning all my Linux ISO's it's free and it has a ISO option, it has never let me down yet.

so you can't make a boot floppy at all?
