    Dear Friends,

    How to create Backup Copies of Distribution
    CDs Which are having same functionality
    as that of Original One. My Assistant reported
    that Copy of first disk he made is not Booting
    from CD rom for fresh installation.

    The disk was copied with some S/W which
    came along with IOMEGA external USB CD writer
    connected to Win XP machine.

    Can somebody help us in making backup copies of
    CDs which will work exactly same as Original Ones.

    Thanks

    Best Regards

    R. S. Patil
