[Ludovic Derlyn]

Hi,

How tested if this dvd is bootable
I have created a boot entry called dvd but when i search to boot on, i have this error

"load of dvd failed: not found"

It's necessary to boot on a system Cd before launch dvd ignite ?

Generally, please give us more infos: hardware, os, dvd ...

Do you see dvd as bootable device?

Hi,

No it is not required to boot from OS media before using Ignite DVD.

Assuming the DVD is created correctly, did you check the DVD partition and required files through EFI shell interface?

I would suggest to go through the document at http://www.docs.hp.com/en/5991-0690/5991-0690.pdf on page 8 & 9.
