Hi All, I know how to make a boot floppy, using mkbootdisk. This works just fine, but requires the system to have the kernel located at the right spots and uses the disk based information to get running. I would like to show them how to make a boot disk that does not require a working system to support it. Any ideas? Phil (The premise is to have a boot disk with fdisk on it, so that machines can be wiped clean without booting a full operating system to do so) -- _______________________________________________ techtalk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/techtalk
