Bug#140264: i386 idepci 1.44 rescue floppy doesn't rescue

[Alexander List <alexlist@sbox.tu-graz.ac.at>]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: 3.0.21

Version 3.0.21-2002-03-19 of the i386 IDEPCI rescue floppy seems to have a
problem in the SYSLINUX configuration. It doesn't accept other boot
targets than the default one, which means that it won't accept a "rescue
root=/dev/xyz" parameter. Workaround is to use "linux.bin root=/dev/xyz"
instead, however then the rescue floppy is still inconsistent with its
documentation.

5ce4481f2032be4dad00d09425f7101d  rescue.bin

used on an off-the-shelf Asus P2B with standard 3.5" 1.44MB floppy drive.
