[ale] How to burn a bootable Debian Sarge cd

[Dow.Hurst at mindspring.com (Dow Hurst)]

Under xcdroast there is a bootable check box when defining the settings 
for the burn.  Haven't found the same under K3b.  Isn't the format 
different for a bootable CD?  Some spec about Toledo?  Can't remember if 
I've read anything about this in the past.  I've burned iso bootable 
images in K3b with no problem.  Under XCDRoast I had to check that box 
to make it bootable or else the image wasn't burned correctly.

Probably needs some googling to find the answer.
