No DVD Boot I have an “old” 1 GHz PC with a DVD reader and CD writer, 512MB Ram, and 2 * 80MB HD. Unfortunately, apparently the BIOS is unable to boot from the DVD reader. So, my question: every month I receive a very valuable Linux DVD from this magazine. How can I convert the DVD into multiple CD’s from which I can boot? I have been thinking about this for quite a while now, especially since there are old computers around that cannot even boot from an existing CD-Rom drive directly.
