Looks good for amiga I would say, probably also for atari, but we have to
wait for Michael to come back to get something definite. The mac files from
the boot-floppies are there, I don't know what has to be changed for the
CDs, again Michael has the final word here.

here install.doc is missing (you copied all .txt files only) but its not
really important since, 1. its outdated, 2. its just a copy of ReadMe_First
at the moment. I think I put it in to be in sync with the other subarches
(maybe Readme_First should go then?).
If some amiga user can write something sensible for the quickinstall docs,
both files could make some sense of cause.

amiboot is executable, all StartInstall scripts are there together with
icons, it should work.
One more thing I noted, you did not copy over drivers.tgz, I don't remember
if this is used during installtion or if driver.bin is used. It seems that
boot-i386 does not use drivers.tgz either?

Thank you very much, now somebody else who updated the docs, please?
