Okay, I got the boot image from the floppy disk copied to /usr/cd/boot.img. Then, I issue the following command: cd /usr mkisofs -o cd.iso -R -J -B boot.img cd Then ftp over to a windows box and burn the cd.iso to a cd. However, the CD will not boot, even though I can read it in windows just fine. If I do a: cd /usr mkisofs -o cd.iso -B boot.img cd The cd will boot, but just to the BOOT: prompt, and it will say, "/boot/loader not found" and "/kernel" not found, even though I put it in the root of the cd. Also, long filenames break when I leave out the -R and -J. Any command line of what I should try with mkisofs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
