I can make a cd with the 2.88MB boot.flp image, which boots perfectly = and fast, but what to do with the rest of the space? I tried adding all the /(s)bin directories, /dev and /etc, but besides I = missed all the shared libs, it appeared that all files were put in the = same dir. I did mkisofs -b boot.flp -o /c/fbsd.iso /etc /dev /bin /usr/bin = /usr/sbin (etc, from memory), then burned the image from windows. I probably want to create a version of the "2. live filesystem cdrom" as = mentioned in /stand/sysinstall How do I make such a thing, is a recipy or an image available somewhere? I'm not subscribed to this list; I have enough to keep up with -current, = so please cc to me at leifn@neland.dk Leif To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
