Linux boot CD with Nero?
 

Has anyone successfully created a Red Hat linux boot CD with Nero Bruning Rom? I dont get the portion where it asks me for a image file or bootable logical drive, what am I suppost to do? It seems like it is asking for an floppy disk, but i dont get why.

:newbie:

I've burned many Redhat CD's with Nero before, with no problems. Are you checking them and their md5sums after burning, etc?

I havent burned any yet, im trying to find out what im suppost to do, do you just burn them as regular data CD's? Or do you pick the CDROM (boot) when you go to New? Im trying to use the latter and it asks me something i dont know about, what am I suppost to do with the image file or the logical bootable drive?

if you have an iso image, you just pick iso image.
choose burn image file, then change the search
pattern to .iso.

i think nero will also let you pick an image boot file
instead of inserting a floppy if you pick the right option,
but that's not what you need for what you're doing.

okay i dont get it and this is getting annoying, what is the easiest way with the easiest program to burn these isos? why is it that i cant get it right?!?!?!

okay how do I change the search pattern?

the instructions really are quite straightforward, just choose "all files" or whatever, it's windows after all...

If you've downloaded the image, go to nero, close all the wizards. Then in the top left, click on file>burn image then browse to the image location and burn.

I got it, thanks alot guys :)

Ok i still can NOT figure this out and, i'm about to give up. I've asked many people how to do this and no one can get this crap right!

I have Nero Express 6. It came with my computer, i've searched for regular nero, i have no idea what it looks like. In my top left of my program i see a logo. To the right i see options.

Please tell me how to get from Nero Express 6 to effin what yall are talkin about. If i close nero express. I close nero....i'm lost. I'm no retard but your directions are extremely vague. They dont tell you which version of nero, or what its supposed to look like. I thought this was the only version of nero available?
Its not yalls fault i'm just extremely irritated at my lack of knowledge. PALLLEAASSEE help.
Thanks
Steve

You can use Nero Express 6 to burn the ISOs, see this.

Thats exactly what I did last night, I burned a new #1 disc and stuck it in my laptop. I restarted and it went straight to windows. No questions, no abnormal anything just acted like it wasn't even in the disc drive. I even changed my options in the bios to check CD drive first then hard drive and whatever else.
Anything else you can ellaborate on? I'm really dead in the water. I dont know what i'm doing.
Thanks for the reply

I've only ever used regular Nero for burning ISOs. Are you sure you don't need to press a key when you turn your laptop on, to change what it boots from?

try this Link:

also make sure you have set your bios to boot from CDROM

What iso are you trying to Burn?

hope this helps,

What is this UBCD? I've already got SUSE 10.1 downloaded. I dont understand what this site is trying to accomplish and i really dont want to waste a blank disc trying to find out.
I'm reading all their programs they put on this disc but how can i use this in regards to getting linux on my laptop?
Again, i'm a newbie. I dont know shit about any of this...
I appreciate the attempt but you'll need to be more specific about this UBCD. It does house alot of nice programs though...
I'm trying to use suse 10.1. I've already burnt the discs...all five of them.
