What's wrong with the boot.iso from the 9.1/boot directory on the ftp? Cheers, Leen

I would suggest looking at Mondo Rescue. It will back up your O/S to a CD or DVD and in doing so makes it bootable. This allows to to recreate a new harddisk just by booting the CD/DVD. http://www.mikenjane.net/~mike/ -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------

He did ask about making a CD not a floppy. But actually the install CD is also the rescue CD, sooooo Make a copy of the install CD. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989 SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please*

But that CD has rpm and things to install, whereas if you are going to create a rescue CD you probably want it to have your favourite apps. For example, I would like mc on it, my customized kernel, etc. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
