I don't known about your nti cd maker software. It is probably a Windows/Dos boot loader and you have only made a directory with the stage2_eltorito in directory /boot/grub.
You should do it with a Linux and use the terminal command "makisofs" which is available in nearly every Live CD.
The steps of making a bootable CD is fully described in
Chapter 3.4 of the Grub Manual. I hope you do not mind reading the link instead of me repeating it here, as nothing is as good as the original. You are only 5 terminal commands away.
The
mkisofs command in Linux makes an iso file out of any directory specified by you. Grub will be loaded if you include stage2_eltorito in the designated directory. There is nothing to it.
You can use the same procedure to make any bootable CD yourself, say customerised and published your own Live CD, etc.
I Was trying to make a DOS Boot And Grub Boot Disk that I can use on both my Vista PC and my Linux PC, I guess that when I used Ndi it only made Dos Boot available for booting. If I use Linux mkisofs is there a way to include Dos Boot on the same disk ?
