Hi Tom,

i have been using your boot disks everyday for the last 2 years (or so)
and have been very happy with it.  we have customized it quite a bit.   
thank you for a great piece of software.  i agree completely with keeping
it on one disk.

now i am trying to make a bootable cd with a linux file system on it.
putting the ext2 file system on the cd was no problem, but making it boot
is not easy.  according to the CD-Writing howto, one needs to put a 1.44mb
bootable image in a iso9660 format on the the cd.  i guess i could put a
small iso9660 partition on the cd with the rest allocated to a ext2 file
system.

according to your mail archive, the kernel wants to boot from a floppy, so
the kernel needs to be patched. (rd.c)  ok, so far.

i tried to download ElTorito.288.bz2 from your site and it is not there.
is there a reason for this (does it not work?).

any comments about what i am trying to do would be appreciated.

thanks
paul jensen
