My partner asked a neighbor for a DOS boot disk (to deal with our two 
laptops that lack floppy drives) and was given the 'ultimate boot cd' 
(www.ultimatebootcd.com) which offers you a choice of booting DOS or 
linux:

DOS - Freedos or Bart's boot cd (win98 DOS), with lots of DOS utilities 
(tests cpu, ram, cd-rom drive, parport, etc.)

Linux:
Tom's Boot disk
RIP - recovery is possible
Trinux - a 1-floppy security-oriented linux that downloads most of its 
files from the internet or another floppy disk
BL2.1 - complete with FAQ

So anyone wanting a BL2 boot disk, with a fast connection, could download 
and burn this CD.  If you download the image file, do you need to do 
anything special to make it bootable or just copy the image to CD?
How would you do this with cdrecord?
