Hi,
Is it possible to use GRUB to boot a Standard PC (El Torito) bootable CDROM?
I find myself needing boot floppies for every bootable CDROM I have to allow
booting the CDROM
on systems without BIOS CDROM-boot support. I'm trying to find a way to have
one floppy that can
boot any El Torito CDROM for these systems. Is this possible? (I'm beginning
to doubt it)
I know I can create an El Torito image with GRUB to make my own bootable
CDROM--this
is not what I need. I'd like one floppy that can boot
BBC/Mandrake/Debian/Redhat/etc CDROMs
so I don't have to create a separate boot floppy for each distro version I'd
like to boot on
a system without BIOS CDROM-boot support.
I checked the FAQ and the recent bug-grub archives to no avail.
Cheers,
John McCarthy.
