alternative to the bootcd and bootmkinitrd packages


Hi all,

First of all I have to agree that bootcd package of Debian is very good, easy to use package and I have been using it for last 6 months to make CDs.

Now recently I was having some problem with bootcd and it was conflicting with my splashy program (not dependencies wise) with I was booting it from the Bootable CD which I created from bootcd.

In short, the splashy program and bootcd/bootcdmkinitrd are not working well for me.

So I was wondering if there is any other program which is as easy as bootcd to create bootable CDs of my system.

Thanks

Yeah I saw that before also (dfsbuild) but there were some caveats with that according to my requirements. Any other such utility that anyone might know?

Thanks
