Error with custom bootable install CD

[mbox mbarsalou]

Forrest,

I am sure that what ever is happening here is what supposed to happen,
but what, exactly, is happening?  :) How did you decide that was what
Brian should do?  Is it only experience, or how could he have figured
this out on his own?
Is there some documentation somewhere that would have pointed him to
this answer?

Thank goodness we have this maillist!

Thanks for your help...it is great to know that this source of
information is here.

Mike
