Bug#107604: Rescue image kernel for Sparc/Sun4u boot floppies has no ramdisk support
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Package: boot-floppies
Version: 20010803
Severity: important
The current Sparc/Sun4u boot floppies for woody are built using a kernel
with no RAMDISK support, which means that the root image cannot be
loaded, meaning the system cannot even boot.
The kernel is also lacking CONFIG_FILTER support - which is required for
DHCP network configuration.
