Hello people. Im testing Haiku images in Vmware, and reporting bugs, but
I would like to create a haiku booteable CD, with this instructions:
1. Create an empty directory
2. Build a Haiku boot floppy by "makehaikufloppy -cd -image
<floppy_image>"
3. Move that floppy image into the folder created in 1
4. Use mkisofs like this: "mkisofs -b <floppy_image> -o <cd_image>
<folder from 1>" (this will create the El Torito descriptor and
put the boot floppy on track one) and note the number of extents
written (usually this will be 768).
5. Build a Haiku disk image by "makehdimage <disk_image>"
6. Now build the second track of the cd by concatenating the boot
part of the cd and the disk image: "dd if=<disk_image>
of=<cd_image> bs=<extents written * 2048 (768 * 2048 = 1572864)>
seek=1"
But i need a floppy disk of haiku, but i cant found it in any mirror. I
had to flash my BIOS to use Beos/Zeta and now its very unstable (because
unsopported IDE driver) so i cant build it ..
Please .. :)
Thanks!
