Do you mean that you have a bootable Mandrake 8.1 CDROM that doesn't
work? Or are you trying to make one? The ISO images that you can
download from eg ftp.esat.net are bootable, all you have to do to burn
them onto a CD is use cdrecord etc. To make your own bootable ISO you
could use the cdrom.img in the images directory on the first Mandrake
CDROM.
