sure you can burn any boot disk,but it wont work with out a mod chip,because it has unreadable sectors that can not be writen with any burner,same as a game.that is why you need a mod chip.

a psx can not read a cdr without a mod chip of some sort the original boot disc is not a cdr but if you copy it it goes on a cdr its just like coping a game

yes its a cd. put it this way, its like having an original psx game and a burnt one, the original will work but the burnt one will need a mod-chip to work. same applies to the boot disc. (providing the game is not protected and needs to be patched). i recommend an internal mod, less hassel.

Warlock is on a distinguished road
Original games and boot cd's contain data that must be pressed into the cd not burned. No commercial cd writer is capable of reading or writing this unique data which is what seperates a original from a backup.
