The Bootloader

To load a kernel from CD, you have to use a special bootloader. I chose the fedora core 2 boot-CD (CD1), which contains a folder called isolinux. Copy the contents of this folder to your hard-drive. Edit syslinux.cfg to fit your needs, and copy the kernel in that directory. That's it, the bootloader will do the rest for you.
