BeOS Boot Image Collection


Information How were these images made?
How do I write a floppy or cd image? ( hide )

In BeOS, the floppy images can be written with
`dd if=boot_floppy.img of=/dev/disk/floppy/raw bs=1k count=1440`
*nix and *BSD's use a similar `dd` command.
In Windows, rawwritewin-0.7.zip can be used.

The CD images should be burned as track1 and a beos image file (image.be) as track2.
