+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm mkbootimage
+.Nd turn Alpha bootstrap programs into bootable images
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm /usr/mdec/mkbootimage
+.Op Fl nv
+.Ar infile
+.Op Ar outfile
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility creates bootable image files from
+.Nx Ns Tn /alpha
+bootstrap programs.
+Bootable image files can be placed directly on disk or tape to
+create bootable media which can be booted by the SRM console.
+This is primarily useful for creating bootable tapes or disk sets
+with the
+.Pa /usr/mdec/ustarboot
+bootstrap program, or for creating firmware upgrade media
+using firmware upgrade programs.
+.Pp
+The bootstrap program
+.Ar infile
+is padded to a 512-byte boundary, has a properly formed
+Alpha Boot Block prepended, and is written to the output file
+.Ar outfile .
+If no output file is specified, the result is written to
+standard output.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+utility does not install bootstrap programs to make
+disks bootable.
+To do that, use
+.Xr installboot 8 .
+Similarly, it is not necessary to use
+.Nm
+to create images to boot over the network; network-capable
+bootstrap programs are usable without modification.
+.Pp
+The options recognized by
+.Nm
+are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width flag
+.It Fl n
+Do not actually write the result to the output file or
+standard output.
+.It Fl v
+Print information about what
+.Nm
+is doing.

+.Sh EXAMPLES

+mkbootimage as200_v5_8.exe as200_v5_8.exe.bootimage
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Create a bootable image from the (firmware image) file
+.Pa as200_v5_8.exe .
+That bootable image could then be written to floppy,
+disk, CD-ROM, or tape to create bootable firmware
+update media.
+.Bd -literal -offset indent

+.Ed
+.Pp
+Make a bootable image from the bootstrap program
+.Pa /usr/mdec/ustarboot ,
+concatenate it with a tar file containing a kernel,
+and write the output to a tape.
+This is an example of how to create a tape which boots a kernel.
