These older cdrom drives are not capable of booting cdrw media and in some cases, home burned cd-r media. I just had to burn Puppy 1.0.2 RC2 three times to finally get it to work on my system, at 1X speed.

The same issue as well with the other burned cd's not being able to find usr_cram.fs on the cd-r disk, as well as X until I burned it at 1X. It looks like a drive read-seek error on the previous 2 burns, so /usr is not loaded.

cp: /usr: no such file or directory error on boot.

Burn them slow guys...at 60 mb for the iso file, it only takes a few more minutes!

...and mine is a newer dvd/cdrw drive. So, burn speed and the quality of the drive are two variables.

yes, i have tried with and without the usb key after deleting the 001 from the key. there was no 001 file on my harddrive though.

now it's just giving me the same error booting with or w/o the usb key.
