Did your friend use a similar or the identical iso to cut the disk that works? If it was not an identical one, is botablet-image.iso one that you have made yourself using mkisofs? If so then this could maybe be the place to start looking. /usr/share/doc/mkisofs-1.15/README.eltorito could be of help to you. HTH Ross
