Re: [OT] DVD drives & DOS



Thanks Doogie,

I am aware that various MS boot media use a custom bootloader program,
instead of the "usual" floppy or HDD emulation, so I'm not sure if the "make
a bootable disk" option in the authoring software will be able to reproduce
that. Up to this point, I've not actually encountered any bootable DVD's so
I'm kinda flying blind here....

cheers

Paul G.
