Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am trying to write boot blocks to an ISO image to burn to a cd with mkisofs. From what I have found, I should use the boot.flp and boot.catalog files. However, when i boot from the CD, it takes me to the install. I don't want that. I want it to just take me to a shell prompt in single user mode so that i can run my restore routines to restore my system. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
