bootfloppy changes for s390



Hi,
I am going to check in some changes for s390, so that we can upload the 
binary package within the next days.

There are two changes that touch common code:

Since the console for s390 supports only line mode, we need a telnet session 
for root in order to run dbootstrap. The passwd of the ramdisk has "/root" as 
home directory and bash as login shell, but neither exists on the ramdisk.

Could we fix it by adding "/root" and changing bash to sh?

The disk formatting utilities for s390 are called dasdfmt and fdasd instead 
of fdisk. Is it okay to grep for "fdisk\|fdasd\|dasdfmt" instead of fdisk in 
documentation/Makefile, when the fdisk flavour is determined?

A final question is whether I have CVS write access as Debian developer or if 
could get it.

Thanks,
Gerhard
