I didn't watch your code yet...
But, I just want to note: A CD can contain now more than one bootfloppy.
Due to this, more than one kernel. And due to this you have to install the
proper kernel!:)

And another wish: My friend always bother me with the Mandrake, because it
can ask you: How many CD's have you from the release, and you don't have to
put each CDs into the cdrom. And he hates this in debian.
I saw Packages.cd{,.gz} on the CDs. Can we somehow add this to the apt's
database in a dumb-user way? (Fe. like the apt-setup calls
``apt-cdrom add'')
