Not top posting (although I think this a preference more then a rule).
Let me clarify what I'm asking - What's different about the stage2.img
file distributed with CentOS 5.0? The instructions found on the web
for 'hacking' this don't work as the file doesn't seem to be cramfs
and/or mountable. Is it a different FS?
As suggested, I greped /usr/share/doc/anaconda-11.1.2.36 for any
mention of "stage2" and "cram" and all are irrelevant to this post.
