'mount -o loop ./base.iso /mnt/target' to mount the iso.

mount the boot.img to a directory, it's a 2.88 MB floppy image and thus writable: %%% 'cp -a /mnt/target/* /tmp/newiso/' %%% 'mount -o loop -t msdos /tmp/newiso/base/boot.img /tmp/bootimage' (you will need a kernel that has support for msdos filesystems).

The file with all the bootoptions is called syslinux.cfg. Open it in your favorite editor, and you'll see something like this. Note that there is a bug, that makes Knoppix/Morphix not recognize the first bootoption.

All you need to do, is add the bootoptions you normally enter at boottime to both APPEND-lines. If, for example, you prefer the default X size to be 1280x1024 and always seem to use alsa, change the lines to this:

DEFAULT vmlinuz%%% APPEND langus screen1280x1024 alsa ramdisksize100000 init/etc/init noapic apmpower-off hdascsi hdbscsi hdcscsi hddscsi hdescsi hdfscsi hdgscsi hdhscsi vga791 splashsilent initrdminiroot.gz quiet BOOTIMAGE=morphix%%% <snip>%%% LABEL morphix%%% KERNEL vmlinuz%%% APPEND langus screen1280x1024 alsa ramdisksize100000 init/etc/init noapic apmpower-off hdascsi hdbscsi hdcscsi hddscsi hdescsi hdfscsi hdgscsi hdhscsi vga791 splashsilent initrdminiroot.gz quiet BOOTIMAGE=morphix%%%

Save the file, close the editor and umount the boot.img directory: %%% 'umount /tmp/bootimage'

the boot.img in /tmp/newiso/base should then have been modified succesfully==== Add any modules you want to your directory in /tmp/newiso, and make a new iso using your favorite cdr-tool, or run the following from /tmp: %%%
