Reason is that so far we've not been able to fit a 2.6 kernel and
everything else we absolutely need on a floppy. Work is in progress at
the moment to make that happen though.
The reason that the builds for the boot floppy are currently broken is
that just before Beta2 a new libc made the image too large even with the
2.4 kernel.
