Mount the bootdisk.bin file using the loop-back device on your linux
development system (ie mount -t msdos -o loop /path/bootdisk.bin /mnt),
update root.lrp, then unmount and "touch" bootdisk.bin (to update the
time/date of bootdisk.bin, which doesn't get affected when copying to
the file when mounted via loopback).  Finally, just make a new CD image,
using the example mkisofs command in the CD-ROM readme file.
