I don't know what the problem is, but I'm having a hell of a time creating a bootable CD for the Dell mini. With the seemingly dozens of disks I've burned, the only one that is actually bootable is MSIWindozx86, which is what I used to install Leopard (10.5.4).
I've downloaded the most recent DellMiniBoot123v7.1.iso but can't burn a bootable copy. I've burned just the ISO as well as extracted the files & burned them. I've done this with Toast on the Mac & Nero & CDBurnerXP on XP.
I've read so many tutorials on this subject & tried various Windows bootable CD tools but nothing works. I'm not even sure now how I got the MSIWindozx86 to work. I've tried both flavors of CD (+R & -R) as well as both types of DVD.
Something this simple shouldn't be whipping my butt like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
