like the cd hasn't been made bootable...
The debian iso's are already bootable. You just need to burn them
correctly. Here is how I do it (and it works on x86, sparc and ppc) -
cdrecord -fs=16M -v -eject speed=8 dev=0,6,0 -data -pad diskimg.iso
You will need to replace "speed", "dev", and "diskimg.iso" with your own
values. Ensure that the disk image has an "iso" extension.
The debian_on_cd faq has more (including cd writing using windows
software) -
