Re: Problem Writing Bootable UDF image that boots to Winpe 2.

You need to have en Windows PE compliant etfs boot record on the
DVD....

Use OSCDIMG from Windows AIK to create the bootable iso file and then
us dvdbrun from resource kit to burn it...

In rare situations with large iso's you might have to use UDFS instead
of CDFS (due to a bug in CDFS). the undocumented -u2 switch to oscdimg
will force the use of UDFS
