| 2 | |
| 3 | 1) Download Busybox and uClibc from CVS or tarballs. Make sure they share a |
| 4 | common parent directory. (i.e. busybox/ and uclibc/ are both right off of |
| 5 | /tmp, or wherever.) |
| 6 | |
| 7 | 2) Build a Linux kernel. Make sure you include support for initrd. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | 3) Put a floppy in the drive. Make sure it is a floppy you don't care about |
| 10 | because the contents will be overwritten. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | 4) As root, type ./mksyslinux.sh path/to/linux/kernel from this directory. |
| 13 | Wait patiently while the magic happens. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | 5) Boot up on the floppy. |
