Hi,

I've tried that already with RC1. I've burned it multiple times and
tried 3 drives. It seems someone removed CD emulation boot from the
livefs CD. It won't work with older PCs anymore. I'm using 8.0-CURRENT
now, but I wanted to give you people a notice. Sometimes a live CD is
useful and perhaps you won't be able to boot it anymore.

I just realized that the CD is not booting on older PCs only, that's
why noone is really concerned about it here, perhaps thinking that I'm
not able to burn an ISO or something like that. But I can definitely
boot 8-CURRENT livefs without problems, so at least it's not a drive
problem.
