To create your own bootdisk:
. Format a floppy disk (note that you *must* use the minix
filsystem if you want the install program to copy the kernel
from your boot disk to your hard drive)
fdformat /dev/fd0H1440
mkfs -t minix /dev/fd0 1440
mount -t minix /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
. Copy this tree onto it
tar -cSpf- . | (cd /mnt/floppy; tar -xvSpf-)
. Copy your kernel onto it
cp your_kernel /mnt/floppy/vmlinuz
. Set up the kernel
rdev -R /mnt/floppy/vmlinuz 1
rdev -v /mnt/floppy/vmlinuz -1
. Edit startup screen (optional)
edit /mnt/floppy/etc/lilo.msg
make sure you stay within 80x24 !
. Run lilo on it
lilo -v -r /mnt/floppy
. Unmount it
umount /mnt/floppy
. You are done!
