Open up a terminal window if you are not at the command line already
and become root with the "su" command. Then you can just use the
"mkbootdisk" command. You need to type the kernel version after
mkbootdisk, which you can find out from the "uname -a" command. There
is more information available from the "man mkbootdisk" command. I found
all this by typing "apropos boot" and reading the man pages for the
programs that sounded like what I wanted. Apropos is real useful for us
newcomers :). There may be an easier way but I didn't find it.
