I am unable to boot from my hard drive due to some problem. As a temporary

How can I make such a CD? Thanks!
The answer will depend on why you can't boot from hard drive in the
first place.
In an old laptop, I need to boot an external hard drive that the BIOS does
not recognize.
A different computer is giving errors, while booting a SATA hard drive. I
was told that "the proper modules are not being used in the initrd", but I
have no idea how to fix that.
I guess a live CD would be useful, but how do I get the live CD to boot the
hard drive? Also, should it have the same architecture (I386/AMD64), release
(Etch/Lenny), and Linux kernel version, as the hard drive?
I got the SATA drive boot problem with this mobo (EP-8VTAI).
I find that making a lilo rescue CD solves the problem.
Although I use grub, its rescue CD does not boot, no matter what.
