Alright, taking my last thread one step further: Does anyone know how I can create my own CD Images that I can burn to disk (possibly) using the information on my last post, Creating Bootable CDs? I mean, all I want to do is create a CD that will let me execute a few simple DOS commands and then reboot the computer. I would be interested in any information anyone has! Thanks, dunna.

That's almost exactly what I'm looking for (I say almost because it costs money). Do you know of any freeware that can do similar?

I doubt you can get freeware with much functionality. You can try isobuster, i think it allows fully functional 30day evaluation.

CYGWIN and SFU (Microsoft Services for Unix) both provide access to the regular UNIX disk tools, which can be used to make images of CDs or DVDs.

I think you can use the mkisofs.exe part of Bart's BootCD project at nu2.nu to create ISO images as well.

I have used CYGWIN before, it was installed on my machine before I formatted it. Have no idea how to use the tools though! :p
