Oh, thats good news for me. 2.2 is not running very stable on my system, Im
giving it a try right now (got an UNKNOWN-INTERRUPT:80:45:00 after only a
few minutes, does not look good...) but I wouldnt bet on it. I have no time
to trace that problem down right now, so somebody else has to build the
boot-floppies, my, what a relief. Ill try to commit my latest changes, hope
it does not break too much. Good luck, whoever picks it up.

Uploading my lastest version (from yesterday, the build tonight failed due
to a stupid mistake) to my debian page right now. vme need not test that,
but maybe some mac+atari users would like to run potato as well.
