Unfortunately my linux machine is down and I only have windows. Considering
how much the slaxo0rs @ Microsoft suck, I am sure it cannot be done with
windows...is there a way to send me the iso? And after I get my server back
up I can post it to there as a mirror is you would like

For those of you who have problems booting FC2 test2: I got it working by 
recreating the iso image using the following steps:

1. Copy the files from FC2 test2 CD1 to a temporary directory:
        cp -a /mnt/CD1mntpoint /tmp/FC2test2

2. Create a new CD1 iso image:
        cd /tmp/FC2test2
        mkisofs -v -r -T -J -V 'Fedora Core 1.91 CD 1' -b 
isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 
20 -boot-info-table -l -R -o /tmp/FC2test2-CD1.iso .

3. Burn the new iso image /tmp/FC2test2-CD1.iso and boot from it.

Greets,
Michael
