help on burning a bootable RH6.0 CDROM, again



Hello all,
	Following comments and directions of Michal Jaegermann,
tony hoover, calvin coghlan, kevin colby, I tried to burn my own
RH60 CDROM. But all failed when I tried to copy the burned cdrom to 
the hard disk by getting many many Input/output errors.

	Then I found Matt Housh's post on creating a bootable RH60 CDROM and
followed his instruction to burn a cdrom again. However, it failed too.
What's wrong with my procesure?

	I used xftp to get the RH60 from sunsite.unc.edu and used
the command mkisofs ... on solaris:

mkisofs -b images/boot.img -c boot.cat -a -A "RedHatLinux60Intel" -d -L -N 
-o ../redhat60intel.iso -r -T -V "RHLinux60i" -v  ./


to create the iso images. Then I used Cuteftp on a PC to transfer 
this iso image (redhat60intel.iso) to the PC and
tried to use Adaptec Easy CD Creator (create CD using disk images...)
to create a CDROM. the creation was successful. However, when I tried to copy
it to PC hard disk to test it, copying stopped at initrd.img with error
message saying that "cannot copy. the system cannot read from the specified
device". I mounted it on Sun Solaris and got the first I/O error when copying
initrd.img and then other files. Finally the copying dragged down all my local
network of my department.

	Any help?
	

Thanks,

Sun
