Booting from a CDROM   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #7289 of 7317 |
Hi,

I'm working on EMILE to make a CDROM bootable.

I've a very experimental floppy image that allows to boot from a
floppy and then load kernel and ramdisk from a CD.

You can find it at http://emile.sourceforge.net/SNAPSHOT/emile-
cdboot.bin

I've tested it with the install CD (Binary-1 or netboot) of woody and
sarge.

Put the CD in the CD drive (SCSI id 3) , the floppy in the floppy
drive and boot...

Any comments ?

Regards.
