man mkisofs. look at the "-b" option. You can get sample boot images from any
bootable iso image, e.g. the F-11 cdrom/dvd/live bootable cdrom/dvd.

explore an existing F-?? dvd to get an idea as to how to create the boot menu.
Using that as an example is probably more valuable that googling as you have a
live working example, so to speak...
