Burning a Mandriva
Hey guys
I had a Mandriva 2006 dvd and i copied it on my Xp in a folder.
Few days after i burned it on a dvd and tried to boot from it to install the mandriva but the system refused to boot from it. How do i burn this DVD so it can boot from it?
Thanx a lot

What did you exactly copy from the DVD?
Was it an ISO file? Was it something else?
What did you burn to the DVD?
The ISO file OR
you chose to burn the DVD by choosing BURN ISO option?
