OOOOhhh things move fast in boot-floppy land... ;-0

As of today, there are 5 different 'flavors' of the boot-floppy
kernel images.  And they are on the following woody-i386
disks by default:

 1  -  default
 2  -  compact
 3  -  idepci
 4  -  udma100-ext3
 5  -  reiserfs

The code I committed last week, when used with the MULTIBOOT
option, will put all of these on the first cd, the remaining cd's
remain as listed above.  The first cd should then be able
to present the user with a list of possible boot images.

If the released image of disk 1 should have
the MULTIBOOT feature, has not been discussed, as
it has not ben throughly tested as yet.  ....  I am hopeful....


I hope this helps.
