joeypesci Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I think this is really simple, burning it to CD so it's bootable. But for the life of me, I can't work out how to do it with Kon-Boot. The ISO won't burn the normal way and Windows won't open it. Confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a mini linux disc which modifies the windows kernel in memory on the fly. If you can't get it to boot then must be your image is bad.

guyintheroom Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Some programs don't like this .iso because it's so small. Imgburn worked for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Use Nero Burning Rom if you want to burn an ISO image to a CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just burn it, boot from it, and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deleted_Account Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Kon-boot can be annoying sometimes as well. I got in the habit of using Ubuntu to burn it or Windows 7's ISO burner. As using anything else results in it not booting some reason :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr-Protocol Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Your copy must be screwed up then. Not only that i think Kon-Boot is a purchasable software *whistle* but there is the internet you can find it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypesci Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 How embarrassing. After months of just leaving this, I mentioned it at work and another engineer tried. They had same issue. But then I had the thought, why not just try to boot from it, even though Windows claims it's empty. Booting from it and works fine. So after all that and throwing about about 4 CDs that were probably fine. It was cause I was an idiot and didn't think to try to actually boot from the CD to test. Fool :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypesci Posted November 18, 2010 Author Share Posted November 18, 2010 Works fine on all the machines at work I've recently used it on. Only works on a local account not a domain account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
