I have used the mkboot utility on the Win2K CD to make bootable
floppies.Don't know about the bootable CD though...I think you need to be
able to set the BIOS up to boot from a CD and this is possible only with
some of the newer version of the CD drives.

Subject: [OT]: Making a bootable win2k cd


My Win2K pro disk isn't bootable, which I think is a really dumb thing
for MS to do. Since I have all of this fancy CD writing software I'm
wondering if I could roll my own bootable cd that happens to have a
"backup" copy of win2k on it. Do any of you have any experience with
making bootable cd's? Can I just make a regular bootdisk on it? Has
anybody used the tools in the bootdisk directory of the cd?
