Fedora boot disks problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, Glen:

I think there's some confusion here:

rawrite and winrawrite are for the .img files that we can no longer use.
That's old news and should no longer be a factor. All references have
been removed from the installation HOWTO for rawrite, so I'm wondering
what guide you're following? Do you have the most recent at:

http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/fedora/HOWTO_INSTALL.html

Secondly, rawrite would not be used to burn iso images. Neither would
winrawrite. On Linux you would use cdrecord, and on Windows something
like Nero or Easy CD Creator. This is covered in the above referenced
HOWTO. Please follow the instructions there to avoid these kinds of
problems.
