Hello Mike, may be this help
http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/#faq
[Q] I've burned a bootable NT4/W2K/XP CDRom using Nero. When booting I can get the message "BOOT: Couldn't find NTLDR"

[A] You need to disable ISO9660 file versions, in Nero you need to do a registry setting:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\General\AddISOFileVersion
Set the value to 0 (zero).
Newer version of Nero have an option in the "ISO" page, Relax ISO Restictions, Enable "Do not add ';1' ISO file version extensions".

Not a problem, as the issue is that the bootsector needs to be in the root of the CD. Well if I do that then how do I spec that location properly in isolinux.cfg for the label tag?
