[plug] boot from stick

[Lucas van Staden]

Hi Orm.

Just checking, as the fact that your cd does not have 'enough space' 
should not be right.

The image you downloaded, should be in the form of an ISO image (either 
cd or dvd)
The iso image need to be burnt as an image to a blank cd/dvd.
You must not burn the file as an iso file to an already populated cd.
