com.apple.boot.plist is missing

i created a boot 132 disk with slimbuild including all my kexts on my current install so i can boot retail, i burned the disc and when i boot up to it, i get a ...com.apple.boot.plist not found

is there something i did wrong when creating this?

it won't go away no matter what i do, when i hit f8 it just allows me to put whatever flag in i want but it just does the same thing says the same thing..

i think if i can make this thing boot right then i can get the retail disk installed on my system which has been my goal for several weeks...

of course i did i even tried popping in the retail leopard dvd to ssee if that did anything but it keeps asking for a boot.plist so im wondering if i made my disk wrong i used slimbuild and just extracted my extensions.mkext and put those files in there.

thats all i did so i may have missed a couple of steps, i also use the voodoo kernel so i was wondering how important putting that in there was?
