Hi Experts, 

I have a cooker machine, a laptop, that I want to make a fresh install
on, but there is a problem, it has no floppy drive.  Rather than make
a set of CDs, I want to put the hd.image on a cdr, and boot that.  The
laptop is running a stale cooker distribution, and has a current mirror,
but has nearly 500 stale packages installed.  I am not a cdrecord ninja,
and when I tried to make the bootable disc with xcdroast, I failed even
though I told it to make a bootable cd with the hd.img boot disk image.

Has anyone a clue how, or even if, this can be done?

THanks!

-Chuck
