+       boot:        NetBSD/bebox booter.
+       elf2pef:     Convert ELF image to PEF image.
+       mkbootimage: Make bootable BeOS DR8 filesystem(a.k.a. obfs) image.
+
+
+boot:
+       enable one line and comment out other lines,
+       to select one console device from vga,frame buffer,serial.
+               vga:            CPPFLAGS+= -DCONS_VGA
+                       e.g. S3 Trio64, ...
+
+               frame buffer:   CPPFLAGS+= -DCONS_BE
+                       e.g. Trio64v+, Millennium I/II, Mystique 220, ...
+
+               serial:         CPPFLAGS+= -DCONS_SERIAL ...
+
+       if change CPPFLAGS after make, use 'make remake' to remake.
+
+       boot can read/exec kernel on ffs(floppy disk),cd9660(floppy disk),
+       attached image by elf2pef.
+
+
+elf2pef:
+       to convert
+               elf2pef boot boot.pef
+
+       if you want to attach kernel file into booter,
+               elf2pef boot boot.pef netbsd
+       of course can attach gzipped kernel file
+               elf2pef boot boot.pef netbsd.gz
+
+
+mkbootimage:
+       to make bootable floppy disk image
+               mkbootimage boot.pef image
+       or, to make direct bootable floppy
+               mkbootimage boot.pef > /dev/rfd0a
+
+
+Example of making bootable floppy disk:
+       % cd /sys/arch/bebox/stand
+       % make
+               cross compile environment:
+                       do the following method instead of make,
+                       % (cd boot; ppc-make)
+                       % (cd elf2pef; make)
+                       % (cd mkbootimage; make)
+       % elf2pef/elf2pef boot/boot /tmp/boot.pef
+               to attach kernel:
+                       % gzip -c ../compile/GENERIC/netbsd > /tmp/netbsd.gz
+                       % elf2pef/elf2pef boot/boot /tmp/boot.pef /tmp/netbsd.gz
+       [insert formatted floppy disk]
+       % mkbootimage/mkbootimage /tmp/boot.pef > /dev/rfd0a
