Boot Disk Creation

If you chose to create a boot disk, you should now insert a blank, formatted diskette into your diskette drive (see Figure 3-24).

It is highly recommended that you create a boot disk. If your system were not able to boot properly using GRUB or LILO, or a third-party boot loader, a boot disk would enable you to properly boot your Red Hat Linux system.

After a short delay, your boot disk will be created; remove it from your diskette drive and label it clearly. Note that if you would like to create a boot disk after the installation, you will be able to do so. For more information, please see the mkbootdisk man page, by typing man mkbootdisk at the shell prompt.

If you boot your system with the boot disk (instead of GRUB or LILO), make sure you create a new boot disk if you make any changes to your kernel.
