[AG-TECH] SC Global 03 - BOF reminder

[Bob Riddle]

this bootable CDROM is kinda hard to do with this stuff on Linux, if the 
goal is to have the CDROM produce a usable system across multiple 
hardware platforms - cause the /dev/stuff has to be in the expected 
place, with the correct drivers, etc.

Maybe adding a config script at the beginning could be helpful.
