On a debian system which of the following would build a boot disk?
A. mkboot /dev/floppy
B. makeboot –device /dev/fd0 2.4.18-12
C. mkboot –device /dev/fd0 2.4.18-12
D. mkboot /boot/vmlinux-2.4.18-12
E. mkbootdisk /boot/vmlinux-2.4.18-12
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
mkboot creates a boot floppy appropriate for the running system. The boot disk is entirely selfcontained, and includes an initial ramdisk image which loads any necessary SCSI modules for the system. The created boot disk looks for the root filesystem on the device suggested by /etc/fstab. The only required argument is the kernel version to put onto the boot floppy.
Syntax:
mkbootdisk [options] kernel version.
Bydefault mkboot creates the boot disk on first floppy device. If you want to specify the device use the –device option. In debian you should specify the kernel filename which resides on /boot.
