SRPM Url: http://dmitry.butskoy.name/makebootfat/makebootfat-1.4-1.src.rpm

Description: 
This utility creates a bootable FAT filesystem and populates it
with files and boot tools.

It was mainly designed to create bootable USB and Fixed disk
for the AdvanceCD project (http://advancemame.sourceforge.net), but
can be successfully used separately for any purposes.


Additional info:
This utility can help anaconda to create universal diskboot.img, suitable for any type of USB booting...

In the future, when anaconda will support installing from flat file tree (not hd iso only ;)), it will be possible to create on a "big" USB disk full installation stuff with updates. (Currently it is possible for network installs only).
