Hi,
where do I get an eralier version of bootcd?
I have tried to copy the content on my pc and it couldn't read either,so I
think the cd is bad written.
I cannot write the complete error because it is on the monitor and it tries
all the time to read from cd.


Actually I need a rescue cd (booting with my custom kernel and giving s
shell where I can mount my tape, Hardisk and so on ).
How can I make such a cd?

Murat

Not with version 2.08. But with recent version you can set following:

# If you do not have a cd burner and only want to create an iso_image
# then set ISO_ONLY="yes" also set BLANKING="no" later in this file.
ISO_ONLY="yes"

And there's no problem using the sid version in woody.

Hm, I'm not sure, but maybe your cdrom gets back to valhalla soon.

Could you mail the complete error message?

> 4.What is CDDEV for?

# CDDEV=/dev/hda|/dev/hdb|/dev/hdc|/dev/hdd|/dev/scd0|/dev/scd1|/dev/scd2
# You can specify one or more CD devices to boot from.
# The first entry is the default. The rest will be given as boot options
# to the user. See DISPLAY.
#   CDDEV="/dev/hdc /dev/hda /dev/hdb /dev/hdc /dev/hdd /dev/scd0
#   /dev/scd1"
CDDEV="/dev/hdc /dev/hda /dev/hdb /dev/hdc /dev/hdd /dev/scd0 /dev/scd1"

It lets you choose on which device the rootfs lies. Per default it's hdc
in this example.

So long
Thomas
