7 As of syslinux 4.01+dfsg-1, the syslinux package doesn't contain premade floppy
8 images anymore. Floppy drives are to be considered extinct in 2010.
10 However, if still want floppy images, you can produce them on your own:
14 # apt-get install mtools
18 # for SIZE in 720 1200 1440 1743; \
20 dd if=/dev/zero of=img${SIZE}k bs=1k count=${SIZE};
23 # for DRIVE in a: b: c: d:;\
25 MTOOLSRC=/usr/share/syslinux/examples/mtoolsrc \
29 # for SIZE in 720 1200 1440 1743; \
31 syslinux -s debian/build/img${SIZE}k; \
40 As of syslinux 5 (with splitout loaders) and syslinux 6 (added efi support),
41 it becomes a bit more tricky to fiddle things arround. If you want to
42 have both bios and efi32/efi64 boot support from one single tftp boot directory,
43 have a look at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720589
