Hello Kurt, thanks for your reply. What I wanted to do is to pack all three disks: bootdisk modules1 modules2 on ONE cd. Most of my computers don't have floppy tapes but cdroms. I'm in need for a suse boot-cd that allows me to load the necessary modules for my nic and then run the ftp-installation. any ideas ? I think the limit of 2.88 megs is the problem..... It would be nice to select the harddrive-emulation and copy all files in a "harddrive" folder. So far no problem, but how can I copy the lilo boot-record on the cd ? Any ideas ?

Hello List,
I'd like to create a boot-cd that contains the three suse boot-disks: bootdisk,modules and modules2.
What's necessary in order to do that ?
Thanks a lot, Gunther
