.SH NAME
genisovh \- Make CD-ROMs bootable for SGI MIPS machines
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B genisovh
.RI <isofile>\ <name:sblock,size>\ ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B genisovh
creates a Disk Volume Header (dvh) on a CD image and records bootable
images therein. This allows the SGI firmware to boot those images
without needing knowledge about the filesystem on the CD image.
Files in the CD image are assumed to be contiguous.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
.B isofile
The CD image filename.

.B name:sblock,size
The name which shows up in the Disk Volume Header, followed by the
starting block of the file and the number of bytes it occupies. This
argument can be given several times to provide boot alternatives.
The blocks are 512 byte long.
