Hello,
I've been trying to get FreeBSD to run off a cdrom. Why,
well longs story, the shot version is it needs to be able to be
turned off and on like a lite switch. (I understand the on part
will take longer, but the off is just hit the button). When I
release this box it will have no console access.
I have found 2 articles that talked about doing this and
made a cdrom. The problem is that I used the boot.flp from the
install, with my own custom kernel and it went into sysinstall
like I wanted to install the system.
Without building the entire FreeBSD distro how do I make my
own boot.flp file and what goes on it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe
