<p>The present invention provides a method and a computer readable medium for writing fixed packet data to create a bootable optical disc. Each of the fixed packets includes a set of data blocks with a set of link blocks separating a pair of consecutive fixed packets. A first packet is written onto a re-writable compact disc including a boot record that has a pair of pointers for pointing to locations of associated boot catalogs. One pointer is used to point to a location of an associated boot catalog. An emulated boot image of a source medium is created for the re-writable compact disc. For a first device that is capable of reading the link blocks, a first boot catalog is written in a second packet where the first boot catalog includes a pointer to a location of a first boot image that can be executed to boot up a computer system. For a second device that is capable of skipping the link blocks, a second boot catalog is written in the second packet where the second boot catalog includes a pointer to a location of a second boot image that can be executed to boot up the computer system. A first boot image is written to emulate the source medium having bad sectors that correspond to the locations of the link blocks in the compact disk such that reading of the first boot image is not interrupted when booting up the computer system from the first boot image. A second boot image is written without emulating the bad sectors corresponding to the locations of the link blocks in the compact disk. <IMAGE></p> |
