At first I tried the following: - Unzip-untar root.lrp into a temp dir. - Change the scripts - tar and zip - Mount the bootdisk.bin as you suggested and then created the ISO
But I got so many errors when booting the CD because of the changes to scripts (root.dev.mk and root.dev.mod in var/lib/lrpkg). And I am pretty sure I did modify them correctly. But I must say that I used RedHat 7 machine, so it may be problem. That's why I did as in my previous message. Charles, thank you for pointing out about the timestamp. I scratched my head over that and finally just gave up because the new bootdisk.bin was OK. -----Original Message----- From: Charles Steinkuehler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 9:06 AM To: Binh Do; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: How to update root.lrp on DCD > I was trying to update the root.lrp to make the print-server work with DCD. > It took me sometime before realizing that I need to update the one inside > bootdisk.bin, not the one on the CD. > > The way I did was: > > - Create the floppy from the bootdisk.bin > - Copy etc.lrp from DCD and modify the syslinux.cfg to have path pointed to > floppy > - Boot with this floppy.

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.
