RE: woody boot-floppies 3.0.9 i386 for testing

[Craig Coles <Craig.Coles@exodus.net>]

Didn't see this message until now...

I will test this on a couple of boxes tonight.  3.0.8 fails on these two
boxes I will be testing on.  (Dell laptop, and Dell Dimension 8100)

Subject: woody boot-floppies 3.0.9 i386 for testing



Version 3.0.9 of the boot-floppies for i386 is available for testing 
at:

 http://people.debian.org/~aph/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/current/

I cannot release this until I get some certification from front-line
testers that this version works (defined as working as well or better
than 3.0.8).  Your testing will help  us release Woody faster.

Please send replies to debian-boot@lists.debian.org, not to me
personally.

Thanks.
