I've copied the whole Mandrake 7.0 CDROM tree from CD to an ext2 partition.
I can boot from the ext2 partition via a floppy with the 'hd.img' image
written to it. However, I can't figure out which IMG file I need for the
CD.
# cd /mnt/scratch <-- where the CD filesystem tree was copied to
# mkisofs -b images/txt_boot.img \ <--- the IMG file
-c boot.cat -o /tmp/mandrake.iso \
-J -r -T \
-p LinuxMandrake \
-P www.mandrakesoft.com \
-A Linux_Mandrake_7.0_GPL_version \
-V LM70GPL \
.
I can boot from a "CD floppy" (# dd if=cd.img of=/dev/fd0) onto the CD, so
I'm convinced the filesystem is okay. However, it won't boot if I use the
cdrom.img file. It _will_ boot if I use txt_boot.img but that image doesn't
trigger the graphical install routine, which is the routine I need to use.
Any ideas? :) All suggestions are appreciated.
