the current platform type. For example: If you were creating this CD /
DVD on an F50, it would be created to support the CHRP platform. If you
are creating the CD / DVD to support this system and a second type of
system, such as the default CHRP and also for an RSPC system, you
would specify -G "chrp rspc" This option requires that all of the device
and kernel support required to boot both platforms be installed onto the
system creating the CD / DVD. Failure to have all of the needed support
installed will not cause the backup and CD / DVD creation to fail. Instead,
it will cause the boot to fail when booting from a platform different than
where the CD /DVD was created. Optionally adding the -s
pkg_source_dir along with this -G combination will allow you to place this
device support for both platforms into the CD / DVD image in order to be
utilized as Post Install device support. This would be useful when you
want to boot from this CD / DVD which has all needed device support,
but install from a backup (tape, CD, DVD, file) that does not have all of
the needed support in the backup image. Selecting -G all creates a CD /
DVD that may be used to boot any system and requires the use of the -s
"pkg_source_dir flag which provides all device support to be built into the
boot images allowing this to be true. You will also be able to utilize this
media as Post Install device support.
Note: Specifying this option will perform an installp command against
the pkg_source_dir and installs those filesets onto this system. Also,
this support is placed onto to the CD / DVD for use as Post Install
device fileset media.

-S Stops the /usr/sbin/mksbcd command before writing to media without
removing the final CD image. This leaves you with a final Rockridge
Image that may be burned to CD / DVD at a later time. The backup_image
file system and the cd_fs file system will be removed leaving only the
cd_image file system with the Rockridge Image (iso). If you select this
option, you will have to manually burn the image to CD / DVD yourself
using the GNU burn_cd function instead of using SysBack. This flag is
optional.
The SMIT menu field equivalent to this flag is: Create the CD/DVD now?.
-r cd_fs
Specify a previously created cd_fs file system that was not removed by a
previous mksbcd process. Specifying this flag simply directs mksbcd to
build a new Rockridge Image from this file system and burn the existing
backup image to CD / DVD. This flag is optional.
The SMIT menu field equivalent to this flag is: Create Rockridge Imafe
from Previous cd_fs.
-m backup_image
Specify an existing backup_image file system that contains a single,
previously created backup image. The mksbcd command will then use this
image rather than running a new backup during the mksbcd process. Do
not specify the -M backup_image when using this flag. The SysBack backup
utilized with this flag had to have been originally backed up to a file using
the /usr/sbin/sysback command AND have used the -2, -z cdsize, and -Z
maxsize command flags. This flag is optional.
The SMIT menu field equivalent to this flag is: Exiting Backup Image.
