I am going to install Best Linux from CD, but my CD isn't bootable. I need some kind boot disk, right? Where can I get it from?

:confused:

Check out these links here:

To find the files they are talking about, just insert your cdrom while you're running windows and use windows Explorer to look in the directories of the cdrom.
I hope this helps.

You should be able to create a bootdisk from a image file on the CD. Check for a directory named ??? dosutil, utility etc.

In it should be a dos based program called 'rawrite' and a bootdisk image file. Follow the readme for instructions.

Most distros have this capability. Never heard of Best Linux though.
