| 91597 | 2002-10-22 03:22:00 | Is it possible to create a boot CD with multiple boot images, and a boot menu to select which boot image to use? :D Say I have a boot disk for MSDOS, Win XP, and Linux - can I make a bootable CD and have those three as options to start as emulated boot disks, or something similar? Mike. |
