7 !!DESCRIPTION
2 CraigBox 8 __make-autoinst-disk__ creates a bootable floppy disk for the operating system autoinstaller. It formats a floppy disk, copies a kernel image to it, and then invokes update-autoinst-disk(1). Before this command can be run, the make-autoinst-initrd(1) command must be run to create the necessary kernel and initrd information.
