on another note...boot disk howto.




How can I make a bootable floppy with my newest kernel on it?

In order to make a bootable kernel floppy, get the kernel source, install
it, go into the /usr/src/linux directory and type the following:

        make zdisk
This will make a floppy that will boot automatically. After this, use
'rdev' to set the root partition. The default is '/dev/hda'.
example take from 'rdev -h':
rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda2 sets ROOT to /dev/hda2
