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  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.
