Subject:   Making bootable recovery CD using cdboot/loader fails
Message-ID:  <20020202180322.K472-100000@nihil>

Hi,
a CD created using the following commands fails during loading
/boot/kernel/kernel (just freezes up) under a recent current:

cd /usr/tmp
mkdir root
dump -0a -f - / | ( cd root; restore -r -f - )
dd if=/dev/zero of=root/boot/boot.catalog count=5
mkisofs -b boot/cdboot -no-emul-boot -c boot/boot.catalog \
	-r -J -V LiveCD \
	-o root.iso root
burncd -e -f /dev/acd0c blank data root.iso fixate

Using a loader binary from 4.5-mini.iso works insofar that it works with
a 4.5 /kernel but can't execute a -current kernel (loader version too low...)

Any clues how to debug this problem?

Bye!
