Rawhide installation question.

[Erik P. Olsen]

I have tried to install rawhide via anaconda. As mentioned in the docs I
downloaded images/boot.iso and burned it to a dvd but it turned out that the dvd
did not have a boot record. Is it missing or have I misunderstood what I should do?

Burned/transferred the boot.iso to a dvd or burned the boot.iso to the
dvd via as an image?

Do you see just the boot.iso file on the dvd or are there couple
directories and other files on it after the burn?

Burned using K3B.

Two directories containing several files: images and isolinux

Oh, I believe I have solved the problem. I burned the iso file to a CD and now
it booted OK.
