burn bootable cd from bootable flashdrive
 

Okay, I have slackware on a bootable flash drive, and the pc onto which I want to install slack won't boot from a flash drive. So how do I burn a bootable set of CDs from my flash drive?

ok you can

A) add plop bootmanager's executable plpbt to your installed systems boot folder
and use it to boot usb's,etc
this is what I do as one of my pc's doesnt boot from usb.

B) use Plop already on a livecd; I include it in most of mine

you didnt say whether you had a preexisting linux distro on hdd?
you can also use plop thru windows menu too

The plop I include in my cd's doesnt install anything to mbr,etc
it just boots into a menu screen and you can choose to boot hdd, cd, and usb's

To answer your question, no, I've never had a Linux system on any PC. To be honest, I've never even seen it in use. I've heard a lot about it, and it seems to be the OS of choice among programmers--initially, that's what interested me in Linux.

The slackware distribution on the otherhand, is just my style. Cognitive coupled with intuitive learning--that's my approach. Bite off more than you can chew, and lot's of crumbs make a meal.

As for your advice, thanks, I'm looking into it.
