Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

On Macs floppy drives don't come with a manual eject button; you are
expected to eject floppies through software.  This is a problem for
floppy installs of debian because the boot floppy is not ejected to
permit the insertion of the root floppy, nor is the root floppy ejected
to allow insertion of a driver floppy.  Floppies can be ejected
manually but it takes a straightened paperclip inserted into a pinhole
on the front of the floppy, which is less than ideal.

I plan to work on this soon.

Boot floppies are gone, so closing.
