Syslinux - Apr 2002 - can't locate files from cd ?

Dear Peter,

I wonder if you can help me.

I am trying to created a bootable cd that will begin
a linux redhat installation. I did use the isolinux method
and without success yet. Maybe I'm just doing something
wrong, but have no idea where to begin troubleshooting.

I did copy the entire RedHat, images and dosutils
to the cd and booted with isoliux.

I specify in the following command in the isolinux.cfg file:

kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=boot.img ( or initrd.img)

It does boot, but it can't seem to locate the files from the
cd, it sais unable to locate and mount hdc (cdrom).

What am I doing wrong, please help.

Kind regards.

Wernher Eksteen.

By default, Redhat CD's are bootable, so you shouldn't need to make them
bootable.   What exactly are you trying to do?
