[ol7_u0_base] mkbootdisk-1.5.5-11.0.1.el7.x86_64

The mkbootdisk program creates a standalone boot floppy disk for
booting the running system.  The created boot disk will look for the
root filesystem on the device mentioned in /etc/fstab and includes an
initial ramdisk image which will load any necessary SCSI modules for
the system.
