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)
