Creating a bootable CD-ROM with GRUB merely requires a special form of stage2
called stage2_eltorito and, optionally, a customized menu.lst. The classic
files stage1 and stage2 are not required.
Procedure 20.6 Creating Boot CDs
1 Change into a directory in which to create the ISO image, for example:
cd /tmp
2 Create a subdirectory for GRUB:
mkdir -p iso/boot/grub
3 Copy the kernel, the files stage2_eltorito, initrd, menu.lst, and
message to iso/boot/:
cp /boot/vmlinuz iso/boot/
cp /boot/initrd iso/boot/
cp /boot/message iso/boot/
cp /usr/lib/grub/stage2_eltorito iso/boot/grub
cp /boot/grub/menu.lst iso/boot/grub
4 Adjust the path entries in iso/boot/grub/menu.lst to make them point
to a CD-ROM device. Do this by replacing the device name of the hard disks,
listed in the format (hd*), in the pathnames with the device name of the CD-
ROM drive, which is (cd):
timeout 8
default 0
gfxmenu (cd)/boot/message
title Linux
root (cd)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 vga=794 resume=/dev/hda1 \
splash=verbose showopts
initrd /boot/initrd
Use splash=silent instead of splash=verbose to prevent the boot
messages from appearing during the boot procedure.
