Hey guys/gals,
 
I just downloaded the dvd version of mandrake 10.1 and i have burned it 2 ways to be safe, one i just burned the iso, and the other i used ultraiso to extract contents and burned all of that.
 
Now i am using microsoft virtual pc and intending on running mandrake through virtual pc only, whenever i try to use vpc and try to install mandrake 10.1 i get insert boot media into drive, well ive tried both of the dvd's i burned and neither of them are picking up. i do remember in my past experiences of needing a floppy disk that it grabs on boot and points it to the cd, ive tried looking several places and cant find much information on it, so can you guys tell me exactly what i needa do to get the floppy i need so i can install?
 
thanks
