How do I make a linux boot (cd/floppy)?
The title pretty much says it ;)
how do you make a boot cd for linux? (or boot floppy if necessary - but I would have to find a floppy cable for making a boot floppy - so I want a boot cd) i'm about to reinstall windows, but leave my linux in tact... I need the boot disk to get back to linux again, and install Grub, so I can boot to linux by default as I currently do! |
I just answered a similar question in this thread.

Check the FC documentation. There should be instructions. Every distro I've used has them.

In Linux type this
uname -r u should get something simliar to this = 2.6.10-1.766_FC3 then type this mkbootdisk --iso --device boot-disc.iso 2.6.10-1.766_FC3 (replace 2.6.10-1.766_FC3 with whatever u got when u did uname -r) then if u have fedora core 3 right click on the file you created (boot-disc,iso) and choose actions and then "write cd with k3b". This assumes you have a cd burner installed :) Hope this helps!! :cool: :Pengy: :study: |
