Ian Grant 13/02/06 18:07:31 >>> Dear suse-autoinstall people,

We have machines without floppies and we want to use an /info file. I understand I can make one and put it in the /initrd on the boot CD. I can probably manage this using the mkinitrd scripts etc, but how would I then create a boot CD ISO image? I am hoping there is a magic mkisofs command line that will fetch what I need out of the boot/loader directory of the SuSE 9.3 distribution and make me a new boot CD. Can anyone point me at more info? Thanks Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-help@suse.com
