Help - Burning Evolution X .iso - Won't Boot.

I had the same problem,.. you just have to put a whole bunch of dummy files on the disc so it takes up more space and then it'll boot fine. I just threw random files in another DIR in the CD.

Question -

Did you make it a multi session cd then?  I.E. burn the .iso, and then add the files after the fact?

So how did you add the filler?  Did you just create another track on a multisession cd?

Just extract the iso using the xiso software,.. but it in its own folder full of a whole bunch of other files and junk and then just make a new iso,...

There may be an easier way,.. but thats at least how I did it.

Thanks for the help, guys.

I used xiso and added some BS dirs to fill up the disk.  Worked great.
