On Thu, 13 Jun 2002, Tom just had to get this off his chest:
The manual states that the rescue disk is not for booting a already installed system. I need to make a boot that will start my SuSE Linux when when the floppy is in the drive!
The answer has already been given IIRC. dd if=/boot/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 rdev /dev/fd0 <root-device> /* root-device depending on where / is mounted */ No need to mount or format. Theo -- Theo v. Werkhoven ICBM 52 8 24N , 4 32 40E. S.u.S.E 7.3 x86 Kernel 2.4.16-4GB See headers for PGP/GPG info.
