NAME

       genisovh - Make CD-ROMs bootable for SGI MIPS machines

SYNOPSIS

       genisovh <isofile> <name:sblock,size> ...

DESCRIPTION

       genisovh  creates  a  Disk  Volume  Header (dvh) on a CD image and records bootable images
       therein. This allows the SGI firmware to boot those images without needing knowledge about
       the filesystem on the CD image.  Files in the CD image are assumed to be contiguous.

OPTIONS

       isofile The CD image filename.

       name:sblock,size  The  name  which  shows  up  in  the Disk Volume Header, followed by the
       starting block of the file and the number of bytes it occupies. This argument can be given
       several times to provide boot alternatives.  The blocks are 512 byte long.
