mount -o loop boot.img /your_mount_point ;look at syslinux.cfg
modify add what you like to modify it/
Once you have a partition working as you like,my simplest way is to boot
from a cd_knoppix into textmode then make iso of your partition,then compress.This way you don't have to transfer anywhere (save disk space).
You don't have to care about the partition size,since it only "iso" the
stored file structure,not the empty space of the partition..Just care about at the end to have final iso below 725Mb for 700Mb_cd

It is not that simple. You have to put in the new vmlinuz file and a modified miniroot.gz.Quote:

The miniroot is the most difficult part.

Is there a simple way to do this, some step-by-step HOWTO somewhere?
