Okay, here's the deal. I went to TLDP to look for info for the
instructions on how to make a boot disk from the boot.img from the iso
(after I mounted it, which was way cool, just wish I could have ran the
installation right then and there) image. I found the file and read the
readme in the directory and nothing. I searched RedHat's site for
instructions on what to do with the file, nothing from them except a
link to download it off their web site. So now I ask, do I just copy
that file to my floppy disk and reboot, or is there a command that I
run (the only indication of there being a command came in the
mini-install howto's, and they never actually went into what that
command was, unless I just missed it). I'd be very appreciative if
someone can at the very least point me in the right direction.
On a linux machine:
dd if=/path/to/mounted_iso/images/boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k
More details here:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/install-guide/
There is a section on making boot disks.
