-- ReBoot

The mkflop module is a suite of scripts and Makefiles which build floppy disk images for a variety of purposes. It is designed to work with the NetBSD build system, but could be ported to other OSes.

Note: The mkflop module used to be known as mkboot, but was renamed to avoid confusion with a Linux program by the same name.
