Most .CDI files are self-boot. .BIN/.CUE files will be non-boot.

To be sure, you can use CDMAGE or ISOBURNER on the image and if you see two sessions, it's most likely self-boot.

BIN2BOOT seems to be the easiest way to make self-boot games, although it doesn't always work. It refuses to work for me when the image contains WINCEOS.BIN instead of 1ST_READ.BIN. As a matter of fact, even one of the recent Kalisto releases that is a WINCE game stated that they didn't make it self-boot because they hadn't figured out how to do so with WIN-CE. Odd thing, I just followed Echelon's tutorial and made it self-boot and it worked just fine. BIN2BOOT refused to convert it because of the WINCEOS.BIN though.
