Look at:
http://toms.net/tomsrtbt-sources/part3/rb/finit.s and: http://toms.net/tomsrtbt-sources/part3/rb/fordos/ As the dos-installer uses an initrd boot. Also maybe see: http://toms.net/tomsrtbt-sources/part3/rb/eltorito.s The script that makes the eltorito bootable cdrom version. Note, none of these scripts are release-quality, or documented, or supported. But they might help. -Tom On Sat, 19 Jan 2002, Carlos Izquierdo wrote: > Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2002 12:43:31 +0100 > From: Carlos Izquierdo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [tomsrtbt] Problems at boot time > > > First of all, thank you all for your replies.
