.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The legacy version  of bximage is an  easy to  use console
based tool for creating disk images, particularly  for use
with  Bochs.  It is  completely  interactive if no command
line  arguments  are  used.  It   can  be  switched  to  a
non-interactive mode  if all required parameters are given
in the command line.

.SH OPTIONS
.LP
When you run bximage without one of the following options,
it will  appear  in  interactive  mode and  ask   for  all
required parameters to create an image.
.TP
.BI \-fd
Create a floppy image.
.TP
.BI \-hd
Create a hard disk image.
.TP
.BI \-mode=...
Image mode (for hard disks only - see the
.I bochsrc
sample for supported options).
.TP
.BI \-size=...
Image size in megabytes (e.g. 1.44 for floppy image, 10
for hard disk image).
.TP
.BI \-q
Quiet  mode (don't prompt for user input). Without this
option bximage uses the  command  line parameters as
defaults for the interactive mode. If this option is
given and one of the required parameters is missing,
bximage will fall back to interactive mode.
.TP
.BI \--help
Print  a  summary  of  the command line options for
bximage and exit.
.LP
The
.I filename
parameter specifies the name of the image to be created.
