[20081122] HowTo: Making a bootable ISO w/ miniroot.kmod etc.
I've asked how building a bootable ISO works now that we have kernel modules and a bootloader that can load kernels before the kernel, e.g. for a ramdisk. After some digging, I've managed to fit the pieces together, get things going, and I've posted a write-up to tech-install so others that are intestested don't have to wade through that swamp again.

The posting describes how the build process was in pre-5.0/current times (e.g. 4.0), what things change in 5.0/current now, and what doesn't change.
