3.0.17 alpha nfs-root install problems

["Sam Johnston" <samj@samj.net>]

Hello all,

Most impressed with the new installer. Just having some grief with
installing to an alpha (specifically multia) which has no disk devices.
Boots fine. Mounts root over NFS fine. Downloads files from the network
fine. Just refuses to mount the rescue disk In messages I'm seeing things
like this:

installing /tmp/rescue.bin
Mounting /dev/ram on /floppy failed: no such device
Mounting /dev/ram on /floppy failed: no such device
Mounting /dev/ram on /floppy failed: invalid argument
Mounting /dev/ram on /floppy failed: invalid argument
Mounting /dev/ram on /floppy failed: no such device
Unable to mount the rescue floppy. You may have inserted the wrong floppy.
Please try again.

Incidentally, cat /target/tmp/tmp/rescue.bin > /dev/ram followed by mount -t
ext2 /dev/ram /floppy works fine.

Any ideas what's going on here? If it's fixed in a new version, how can I
create a new tftpboot.img? Does anyone have such an animal ready to roll?
