Hi - the first one I understand, I think... - I dd a floppy startup image from www.rom-o-matic.org directly to the hardware disk, say /dev/hda1 - that would really raw-write to the disk from the very start of it, right? But, it would work. Of course, it would quite effectively wipe the disk, but it wouldn't matter,- it would work? - the second one I don't understand. May I ask, what's a zdisk image? If I get a zdisk image, I then tell GRUB about its whereabouts, just as if it was an ordinary kernel image? - thank you for your answers! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
