Re: [Trinux-talk] Re: Small (6MB) Test 2.4.19 ISO

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

Here's the script I use to create the .iso

ISO="/alt/trinux/trinux.iso"
ISOROOT="/alt/trinux/iso"

mkisofs -R -J -o $ISO -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat
-no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table $ISOROOT


I'll release a cdrtools.tgz package that has mkisofs and cdrecord that
would allow you to make the iso and burn the image within trinux. I only
have SCSI and firewire burners, so I'll need some help from folks with IDE
burners to get that working. The easiest would be to make the iso within
trinux and then just use windows to burn it.
