P.S.:
Following are not rules, but "common sense" advice:

....

b. Please avoid to put pressure on other members, I have seen on other boards members posting a question and no later than 2 hours later make another post like "anyone?" or "PLEASE, I really need this URGENTLY!". As said, scope of the board is the exchange of informations on boot related technicalities and software, all members have their own work and come here to relax, learn something new, help others and discuss these topics, if you need something really "URGENT" consider hiring a professional consultant (and be prepared to pay him/her). If your request has not been acknowledged by anyone after a "reasonable" time, that in this case means a few days, you are on the contrary invited to "bump" it, as it may happen that a particular post has been overlooked.

unetbootin SUCKS!

FULL of BUGS...

Your authoritative, extremely well worded and documented opinion has been taken note of, rest assured .

Now, what about (if your intention is actually that of finding a way - not necessarily through unetbootin (as, in your words, it sucks ) - try starting posting something meaningful?

Points #c, #d and #f of the "common sense advice":

i'd like to do it by unetbootin but if not possible maybe someone give some ideas...by the way how can i contact with the developer(s) of unetbootin? perhaps more ideas from them could help me...

*the point here is that i dunno wanna spend a penny on cd's
