Curt,
I have often thought about that, but I had trouble figuring out how to
get all of the boot paths correct. I think that when you boot from a
CDROM, it changes the CD to drive A:. So essentially, you have to set up
all of the boot paths to point to A:. So you couldn't just install it on
say C: and copy it over to the CD. Maybe when I have nothing to do (next
lifetime) I'll try that.
