hehe.. exactly! the "boob" sector is the culprit. even if u haf correctly identified the fedora installation files and burnt to the dvd it won't boot unless u haf the correct "boot" sector. you haf 2 options.

using ur cd/dvd burning software make an iso of the digit dvd. now use an iso editing software like isobuster, winiso, magic iso etc. to remove the files other than fedora installation files as suggested above.

you haf one more choice. if u are sure that you've correctly identified all the fedora installation files then add these to the root of a new compiltion. pop in digit dvd and extract the boot sector (again using isobuster, winiso, winimage, magiciso etc.). now in ur new compilation make it a bootable dvd and point the boot sector to the file which is extracted from the digit dvd.
