.SH NAME
mkbootmedia \- create bootable Solaris ISO image
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fB/usr/bin/mkbootmedia\fR \fB-v\fR [\fB-l\fR \fIlabel\fR] \fImedia-root\fR \fIiso\fR
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBmkbootmedia\fR utility takes \fImedia-root\fR (the root of an on-disk
Solaris install media) as input and creates a bootable Solaris ISO image in the
file \fIiso\fR, using \fBmkisofs(8)\fR. The file can then be burned onto a
CD/DVD with utilities such as \fBcdrw\fR(1) or \fBcdrecord(1)\fR. (Neither
\fBmkisofs(8)\fR nor \fBcdrecord(1)\fR are SunOS man pages.)
.LP
Caution -
.sp
.RS 2
The directory tree \fImedia-root\fR must contain the file
\fBboot/grub/stage2_eltorito\fR, which will be written to the media boot
sectors. This file will be modified with some boot information, thus it must be
writable. If necessary, first save a copy prior to running this utility.
