How did you create the CF card? You need to use syslinux to make it bootable (directions in the guide) and then simply copy the files over from your floppy. I'm saying this thinking that you may have written the floppy image to the CF card which boot-sector wise may cause confusion. -Ron ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
