[Devil-Linux-discuss] Fwd: Making bootcd.iso

[Bradlee L. <bra...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've been trying to add custom code (about 104K in size) to devil
linux (1.2) by remaking the bootcd.iso. When I run mkisofs, the iso is
more than twice as big as the original (~580M vs the original 250M). I
tried running mkisofs straight and it came out larger. The -z flag
(which seems to suggest it compresses the image) only makes it larger.

I also attempted to use the information at
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/downloads/files/OLD/bootlfscd.txt,
but I have not been able to find the boot.img file needed to make it
bootable.

Is there a special command that is used to make the original? Can I
use the larger file without problems?

Thanks,
