I figured out why a 4.7 CD that I had downloaded as an ISO image and burned wouldn't boot my machine. It had to do with the kind of blank CD I was using. I switched from GQ 700MB/80 minute blank CD (dirt cheap at Fry's in Palo Alto) back to a Maxell 650MB/74 minute CD. That did the trick. Any explanation as to why this is so would be appreciated. It may have nothing to do with FreeBSD, I realize. The drive in my Server is a Matshita DVD, I believe. I burned the CDs on a Win2K machine with Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.05. Thanks.
