packet1 Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 I am looking for some tested methods for adding bootable/liveCD linux distros (or bootable floppy linux distros) to a multi-boot CD or DVD. I have used many tips/guides here and made several successful discs. I am a unix admin (my day job) and I would like to create an AIO disc that allows me to boot to several MS W2K3 server versions as well as my recovery linux distrobutions, like RIP Linux and Kanotix. I also have some floppy linux distros that can setup quik firewalls/dhcp servers, recover WIN/NTLM passwords ect.. I understand that this is a MS-related forum, but I believe many of the Linux tools could be a valuable resource in the hands of a Windows/MS admin. Any help would be appreciated!

packet1 Posted January 24, 2005 Author Posted January 24, 2005 Thanks man, I'll check it out. It's probably some combo of isolinux/memdisk....i figure.
htc Posted January 25, 2005 Posted January 25, 2005 the isolinux/memdisk can load the linux boot floppy disk images, in CD Shell you can direct load the boot sector of linux distribution such as knoppix/knoppicillin...
