I have got an CdRewrite - so I could make some experiments with an bootable
cdrom.
Maybe it would be an Idea to make just the (bootable) directory stucture,
and everybody could fill it himself. Some good parts could also be put as
AddOn's on the net.

Once I have read the bootabler cdrom howto and there it says that the cdrom
pretends ( = is mounted) as a floppy. Maybe that is why it has to be 1.44
MB.
