CD autobootable uses a method called E-Torito: they uses a 1.44 floppy.
I cloned muLinux in a CDROM may time: please take a look to the
directory /usr/clone. You will find the command "roclone": readonly clonation.
It use mkisofs/cdrecord to build a bootable CDROM.
Please, take a look to the script make.cd and other. The command able to
build an ISO9660 bootable image is:
# mkisofs -r -b boot/BOOT.img -c \
boot/boot.log -o /tmp/master.iso /tmp/master
the -b parameter requires a file (in this case BOOT.img), sized
1.44M exactly, contains the mini Linux system.
I think, you can use as boot.img the "muLinux installation floppy"
(it is DOSFS 1.44M), with some little modification. You can extract
boot.img with the command:
# dd if=/dev/fd0 of=BOOT.img
