I removed the old kernel udebs from sarge when I was under the mistaken
impression that we were going to have a release within a week of
DebConf4. These changes have to be made a little while before release.
Of course the direct links to the beta4 floppy images were removed
from the web site when I realised this had broken them, and when the
release didn't happen. You'll notice that a great many beta4 images are
broken, also including all the businesscards, for other reasons.
