Sounds like a job for bootcdwrite. With bootcdwrite you create a chroot directory (or partition) with everything you want on the cd, and it does the rest. If your normal system is small enough (telling bootcdwrite which parts to skip), you could use it instead. On the other hand, an easier method (if you only need reiserfs support), it probably would be even easier to download an install CD from some distribution (I don't know if debian has one supporting reiserfs) and boot from that. -- David Roundy http://civet.berkeley.edu/droundy/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
