dbootsrap.pot says:

#: floppy_modules.c:142
msgid ""
"Now please insert the floppy in /dev/fd0. \n"
"All the modules you want to load with this process must reside in the boot "
"subdirectory of your floppy disk.\n"
[...]

and:

"There is no boot subdirectory where the modules should be on the floppy "
"disk. So we stop this step here"


Which is confusing. May I change it to:

"All the modules you want to load with this process must reside "
"in the /lib/modules/<section> subdirectory of your floppy disk.\n"

and:

"There is no /lib/modules subdirectory where the modules should be on the floppy "
"disk. So we stop this step here"

?
