.TH BOOTCD 1 "Wed Feb 23 00:00:00 EET 2000" "" "bootcd utils"
.SH NAME
bootcd* \- utils to run diskless systems from cd
.SH DESCRIPTION

With
.I 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 is now easier to install (only one package). The sandard system runs 
on i386 or amd64. Like all Debian standard Kernels a initrd is used by 
bootcd as default now.
