Go to your BIOS and set the CD-ROM as the first boot device

if you used nlite to build your installation uncheck the option that says "remove cd boot prompt" and rebuild the iso

[idle.newbie]

you have to use another boot loader, eg. bcdw/cdshell, and make a simple boot menu, like multiboot cd but only with "boot from hd"/"boot from cd"(boot from the 8k boot sector).

that 8k boot sector is not regular CDBOOT.bin(2k), something like emulating cd as hd/disk, it will not load BOOTFIX.bin.
