I think you're asking about how to make an iso image from which you can create a bootable CD. A lot of what you need to know is explained on this page: http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/ That is a good page to look at if you want to build a bootable CD even if you don't use the tools offered for download on that page. I have successfully created a bootable freedos diskette and then used Bart's utility program on the page above to create a bootable CD. I'm blind so the first thing I have DOS do after it boots from the CD is run the installer for a speech program. Instead of installing speech, you could have it run ghost. All you do to have it run something when you boot is put it in the autoexec.bat file. I'm still just getting started with this and one thing I don't know how to do is get past the 1.44 Mb size limit on a diskette. But even that is explained on Bart's page (URL above). I just haven't gotten that far yet. As somebody said, you have to build your diskette image with CDROM drivers. Note to the rest of the list: As I mentioned, I'm trying to make a CD that comes up talking. Having it run the installer right after boot is no good because I can't see to run the installer. This is where I am currently stuck. I thought what I'd do is try to install the screen reader on a bootable freedos diskette and then build a bootable CD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
