As mentioned, you have to modify the bootdisk.bin file on the ISO image, which is a 1440K floppy disk boot image. NOTE: You have to do more than simply edit the bootdisk.bin file, and put it on your new CD image. The important thing is to use your modified bootdisk.bin image when making the CD-ROM bootable. The actual boot image used by the BIOS when booting the CD is *NOT* the bootdisk.bin file, but is actually data "hidden" on the ISO image...the bootdisk.bin file is there simply for your convinence. The CD-ROM readme contains an example mkisofs command you can use to re-create a working bootable CD Image.

You can then make an image of your modified boot floppy (bootdisk.bin) and copy it over the bootdisk.bin file (image) on the ISO image. > Also, am I correct in thinking that I can replace the .lrp files in > the image with my floppy backups and reburn to get a "floppyless" > setup once I have it all configured?

Will that work? I don't really know how iso filesystems work, but it ought to. I've done that _sort_ of thing before, but not with iso9660, I'm afraid, so I don't know. I don't really know how hard life is with a Windows machine, though. I have never had to do real work with them.

I don't know how to do it with WinImage... this is what I did ( I have a access to RedHat Linux machine) so mount -t msdos bootdisk.bin -o loop /mnt/lrpmnt cd /mnt/lrpmnt vi syslinux.cfg then rebuild the .iso image and burn Upnet Joe - Original Message - From: "Kory Krofft" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Charles Steinkuehler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 10:06 PM Subject: Re: [Leaf-user] Adding to syslinux.cfg on DCD > Thanks for the response Charles, > I am planning to burn a new CD but I don't see where to edit > syslinux.cfg > to use when burning the new CD.

Re: [Leaf-user] Adding to syslinux.cfg on DCD
Thanks for the response Charles, I am planning to burn a new CD but I don't see where to edit syslinux.cfg to use when burning the new CD. I can copy it from a boot floppy but where do I have winimage put it to replace the current one on the ISO image?

Yes, if you do full backups to your floppy, and use these packages when you burn a new CD, you won't have to have a floppy (or other device for configuraiton storage) until/unless your configuration needs to change from the CD.

[Leaf-user] Adding to syslinux.cfg on DCD
How do I edit syslinux.cfg on the DCD image? I have winimage and can view the ISO image but I don't see syslinux.cfg. I want to add the serial terminal redirect to it so I will see boot messages. Also, am I correct in thinking that I can replace the .lrp files in the image with my floppy backups and reburn to get a "floppyless" setup once I have it all configured?
