This is the most common problem. The BDI image is an ISO-9660
file system, and has to be burned to the CD *AS AN ISO-9660 IMAGE*
to work. Most CD burning programs have a check box hidden somewhere
deep in an "expert" menu to enable this. If you don't do this, you have
just copied a file to a CD, but not made a bootable image of it. Big
difference, and NO warning whatsoever that it won't work.
