Thats good news. Not so good news is that I accidently deleted one file
(bf-root, the most important file) due to lack of disk space just before
uploading. Things happen when you are in a hurry... anyway, people who want
to help testing, help improving the quickinstall (if you send a diff, please
send a unified diff, diff -u, and please send a diff agains what I fumbled
together now) you can get all the files, except bf-root, at:
 www.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/boot-floppies
There are no [amiga|atari|mac]install.tgz files (they are in bf-root...)
just get bf-[amiga|atari|mac]*.tar.gz instead, they are nearly identical.
As for the base2_2.tgz, just use what is allready in the archives, nothing
should have changed there anyway. If you just want the text files, look in
the source directory.
The amiga kernel now definetely supports GVP SCSI, there is a dmesg (right
now only in source, the mac files are reorganized, no mac/install
subdirectory anymore. No mac*hfs images anymore.

Seems I have to come back again during the weekend to do the upload :-((
So anybody who wants to improve the docs still has a little extra time (but
I do not know how much time we have until things are rejected for the
CDs...). Please send corrections as unified diff (diff -u) or the complete
text file (no files >1MB please).
