Creating openSUSE 10.2 Boot Disks
---------------------------------
The boot files are split across several floppy disks.
To create boot disks, run 'mkbootdisk' (the program is in this directory) on
a Linux system:
1. Mount CD1 or DVD (e.g. to /media/cdrom).
2. Run
/media/cdrom/boot/mkbootdisk /media/cdrom
to create boot disk image files bootdisk1 - bootdiskN.
3. Write these image files to floppies, using e.g.
dd if=bootdisk1 of=/dev/fd0
(and bootdisk2 - bootdiskN accordingly).
4. A short usage summary of 'mkbootdisk' gives
mkbootdisk --help
