Damn.
I THINK I saw something during a full build about some individual files
being copied into the root image for one specific boot set, but I haven't
yet found where. Maybe I can copy the ide-floppy module in at that point.
Which would people reccomend to work better, adding the ide-floppy module
into the ramdisk image, or branching a kernel flavour off the main kernel?
I do have basic image support for LS120 basically working, not tested yet.
it's so far just the 2880 image scripts using a larger disk image, so the
drivers and base tarfiles can be copied to it later on. Randolph, would
you like me to send you diffs to look at?
Oh and Michelle, do you have support to boot from your zip drive? I don't
yet have one of my own, so I can't even think of adding zip support yet,
but I might be getting one after my next paycheck.
