Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:43249 Is the CD from Watnut Creek supposed to be bootable? Or am I just lucky (can't be, there's got to be a reason!)? I find that I can boot directly from the CD even though I don't have the El Torito (don't know what that is exactly) which WinNT 4.0 requires to boot from CD. I don't find that "feature" documented anywhere. Has anyone else had this before? Regards, C. J. Tan
