I can create a bootdisk using mkbootdisk and it works just fine. If I run rdev /dev/fd0 I don't get /dev/hda3 like I was expecting. I get a hex value like /dev/0x3da5. If I do a rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda3 and then do a rdev /dev/fd0 I get the expected answer back of /dev/hda3. However, the bootdisk won't work anymore. What am I doing wrong. BTW, I need to create a bootdisk for a second unbootable system that has a different root partition. I wanted to use rdev to make the change so I could use the bootdisk on the other system.
