equivalent of mkrescue for the alpha ??? rescue CDs
The new version of mkrescue in the Debian/Sid lilo package has a
command-line switch "--iso" for creating bootable cd images of the
kernel to be used for rescue cds (as opposed to rescue diskettes). I
find this very nice because I like to minimize modules which makes the
kernel size too big for a floppy. Most machines can boot from a CD
these days.
Is there a similar package that will create bootable CDs for the alpha ?
If not how does one go about creating a bootable CD from a kernel image
? Preferably, one would want to interface nicely with either milo
and/or SRM in a straight-forward manner.
