+# Create an image which can be placed directly onto a harddisk using dd and then
+# booted.
+#
+# This uses syslinux. extlinux would have been nice but required the ext2/3 
+# partition to be mounted. grub requires to run itself as part of the install 
+# process.
+#
+# The end result is a 512 boot sector populated with an MBR and partition table
+# followed by an msdos fat16 partition containing syslinux and a linux kernel
+# completed by the ext2/3 rootfs.
+#
+# We have to push the msdos parition table size > 16MB so fat 16 is used as parted
+# won't touch fat12 partitions.
+
+# External variables needed
+
+# ${ROOTFS} - the rootfs image to incorporate
