> Also, instead of making a rescue floppy, make a rescue CD. Reason?
Floppies are extinct. Modern computers don't have floppy slots, they don't
make floppies anymore, and you don't see them used nowadays. So, since
floppies are extinct, just simply burn the ISO into a rescue CD.
We can't create an CD/DVD form chroot because we don't have the CD/DVD
writing utilities. We can create the iso image though. William, would
you like to prototype the procedure? A starting point would be to
download grub-1.99 beta and try to make a bootable CD as described in the
instructions at http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Making-a
-GRUB-bootable-CD_002dROM
