actually the same tool is used for hp300... there are currently separate
copies of this for hp300 and hp700.  the hp700 version is probably better
than the hp300 version at this point.

really this is more of a "mklif" than "mkboot".  it would be nice if we
had tools to do more with LIF files than just create them, too.
but I digress...
