bootcd extension to create an initrd-image usable for bootcd

With bootcd you can copy your system to cd, run it from cd without need for disks and restore your system on disk from bootcd. This Package should be installed on a system you want to copy to cd, if the kernel uses initrd (as all prebuild debian 2.4 and 2.6 kernels do). With the command bootcdmkinitrd your initrd.img can be changed to use discover and to automatically detect the cdrom the bios used to boot.
