I bought the Apple Mailing from the Apple Sales Web so I could try
Leopard
Server on my Xserve's. Unlike the Leopard Client I also purchased
there
which was a commercial installer DVD with a not for resale sticker,
Leopard
Server came as a disk image along with Xsan and Apple Remote
Desktop along
with some text files with limited time serials for these programs
as text
files all included on a single DVD. This DVD is not bootable. Apple
should
have supplied a not for resale version like they did with Leopard
Client and
put the other files on a separate CD. It would have added 50 cents
to the
cost but saved hours of work for people trying Leopard Server.
I've tried burning the disk image supplied by Apple and though it
shows up
in Toast & System Startup as being bootable it is unbootable and if
you use
the Option Button during startup doesn't appear as a bootable disk.
What is
the recommended way to make a bootable DVD from the image Apple
supplied?
I've blown over $30 on blank dual layer DVDs that ended up as
unbootable
disks. I've bought another $30 of blanks and need some advice lest
I end up
with another bunch of coasters.
Take a firewire drive and partition it and put the image on there to
boot from.
