The express version gives this message when selecting the boot image:

The Nero installation contains an image of bootable
floppy disk, which will be used to make your disc
bootable. You can select a boot locale, which will
preare the appropiate country code page and keyboard
layout for included DOS.

Alternatively, the A:> drive can be selected so that the disc being
burned will
boot the same way as the floppy in the A:\, grr.

There's no such mention in the "full" way of doing things, but the
exact same
choice appears without the message...?

Here's what I did, not from Nero express but the full version.
Unfortunately,
the interface is different from that described in the link.

...
(demo version, enter serial number...)

File-->New

"New Compilation window"
(select cdrom boot)

Boot: Image File:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\FC3-i386-disc1.iso

(other tags left as default)

New Window "ISO1 - Nero Burning ROM"

ISO1 tab:
New

File-->compilation properties
brings up "New Compilation Window" to double check things

Recorder-->Burn Compilation

brings up "Burn Compilation" window
click "burn"

annoyed with nero,
