NAME

       bootcd* - utils to run diskless systems from cd

DESCRIPTION

       With  bootcd  you  can  copy  your running Debian System on CD with the
       command bootcdwrite.  If your system has no CD-Writer you can  build  a
       bootcd via NFS on a remote System with CD-Writer or you can only create
       an ISO image.  When you run your system from CD you  do  not  need  any
       disks.  All  changes will be done in ram. To reuse this changes at next
       boot time you can save them on FLOPPY with the command bootcdflopcp. If
       booting  from  your  CD-drive  is not supported, booting from FLOPPY is
       possible.  It is possible to install a new system from the  running  CD
       with  the command bootcd2disk. Bootcd2disk can also find a target disk,
       format it and make it  bootable  automatically.  Bootcd  also  supports
       parisc/hppa, initrd root fs, devfs and syslinux/isolinux.
