I've been trying to do a 'proper' boot disk WITH a 2.2 kernel on it. I failed miserably! It won't happen! Not on one disk anyway, the kernel is WAY to big... I see two options: 1, One boot disk and one root disk. Downside: One more disk to make sure you don't loose. Advantage: More space for drivers, more space for the install disk, which means we can support more types of installations, like SMB, NCP, root-RAID (top on my personal list), etc, etc. Only our imagination is the limit... 2, Many different rescue disks. Rescue w/ SCSI, w/o IDE Rescue w/ IDE, w/o SCSI Rescue w/ IDE & non-IDE CDROM's (etc, etc) Downside: Speaks for it self, I think :) Advantage: Only one disk to keep track of. Point 1 is quite easy to implement, I'm trying to do this locally at the moment. We really need to come to a desition, before we bury our self to deep in the 'one size fits all' pit... I for one like the first one best... -- We are GNU. You will be GPL'ed.
