  Step 1:  Select Bootable CD

Open a Report
Open Easy CD Creator as you would for a normal data application. Insert blank CD media into your CD Recorder. Click the small arrow next to the New button on the toolbar. Select Bootable CD from the drop-down list.
  Step 2:  Insert Floppy Disc

A dialog box will prompt you to insert a bootable floppy disk into drive A. Insert your bootable floppy disk into your floppy drive and click OK.
  Step 3:  Copy Contents of Floppy Disk

The contents of your floppy disk will be copied to your system and stored in the CD Layout. From here, you can continue to create your CD as you normally would for a Data CD.
  Step 4:  Test the CD

When your Bootable CD is finished, test it on the system you wish to boot from. Be sure bootable CD-ROM support is enabled, and then reboot the system.
