El Torito defines 2.88MB, but last round people claimed that this will
only work when your BIOS (the floppy-releated part, not the CD
booting) supports 2.88MB floppies. OTOH even my old 486 board supports
such floppies. I guess someone should try it. But even if someone
succeeds this is too unsafe for the upcomong release ...
