We believe that the bug you reported has been closed in the Potato
version of the boot-floppies. We may not have received a response
from you so we are closing this bug.
Please let us know if you find that the bug still exists in the potato
version of the boot-floppies, and we can re-open your bug.
Note that there are some temporary but serious problems with those
floppies you should know about on i386:
- installation of base from floppy probably not working
- the compact flavor may not work
