NAME

       bximage - Interactive Disk Image Creator for Bochs

SYNOPSIS

       bximage [options] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       Bximage  is an easy to use console based tool for creating disk  images, particularly  for
       use with  Bochs.  It   is completely  interactive if no command  line arguments  are used.
       It  can  be switched to a non-interactive mode if all required parameters are given in the
       command line.

OPTIONS

       When you  run  bximage  without  one  of  the  following  options,  it  will   appear   in
       interactive  mode and  ask   for  all required parameters to create an image.

       -fd    Create a floppy image.

       -hd    Create a hard disk image.

       -mode=...
              Image mode (for hard disks only - see the bochsrc sample for supported options).

       -size=...
              Image size in megabytes (e.g. 1.44 for floppy image, 10 for hard disk image).

       -q     Quiet   mode  (don't  prompt  for user input). Without this option bximage uses the
              command  line parameters as defaults for the interactive mode. If  this  option  is
              given  and  one  of  the  required parameters is missing, bximage will fall back to
              interactive mode.

       --help Print  a  summary  of  the command line options for bximage and exit.

       The filename parameter specifies the name of the image to be created.
