miboot net-install floppies too big



Hi,
I have a powerpc 6500/275 and am trying to install debian etch with the
floppy images from ~wouter, or the beta3 from debian for that matter.
Everything works fine until I insert the net-install.img. Through mail
contact with piotras, after "erroneously" posting on the
debootloaders-miboot list, i found out that all the recent net-install
images are too big for a floppy. I also found the following post which
makes reference to this fact:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2006/09/msg00823.html
Is anybody looking into this?
The boot loader works otherwise up to the net-install part and it's a shame if the floppies won't work since the only other way is with a harddisk install which is a more complicated.
truly, rob
