Creation on a Linux based system

The boot image is located on the CD in /boot/boot.img. Type the following command in a shell to create a boot disk:

# dd if=/mnt/cdrom/boot/boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1k

The above command assumes the CD is mounted in /mnt/cdrom, change this if necessary. Once you have been returned to the prompt the disk is ready for use.
