How to Create Bootable CD

| Wednesday, August 24


 Most current CD R/W application packages are able of capturing a Compact disk and creating a boot imagefrom it. With the particular menu selections are made, they will by default “inject” it into the CD image.With such a technique it is so easy to make a Bootable CD.
Some of the most effective and popular application packages used is Nero which can create a bootable CD from anydisk image, and easily allows simple fine-tuning of entities such as the emulation type and startup message. The common process for creating a bootable CD from a Compact disk is as given below:
  
1.     Create a bootable compact disk which has all the necessery driver and startup applications on it. You will need a certain CD driver to use the CD in a convenient pattern so as soon as the system has finished booting. It is suitable to use a generic CD driver as if you are planning on using it in a some of the different systems. 

2.     Make sure that any of path names in the config.sys andautoexec.bat files are not filled up with certain drive letters.

3.     Make sure that boot process does not ask you to write to the disk. Set the read-only flag on all similar files and write-protect the disk if applicable. If at any stage your system tries to write to the CD on boot-up, there are chances that system may crash.

4.     Check this compact disk completely in whatever PC environments you wish to use it and in different versions ofplatform.

5. As after completely verifying with the bootable disk, create the CD with your CD Reader or Writer publishing software package. Then Select the “bootable” option when it often prompt for the compact disk. You can also feed any other data onto the CD in the same session.
