Hi

Question thrown on the go: If i use cd/dvd-rw to burn ubuntu setup discs, will they tend boot correctly or will they be skipped by the computer's boot detection procedure?

(just realized that i made a misstype in the title: cd-re = cd-rw, dvd-rw. )

If you burn the ISO file as an image file (not as a data file) with a software and enable to boot from CD-ROM first in the BIOS, then yes.
