Re: emergency shutdown?

That should be perfectly straightforward... but while a floppy has
1457664 bytes on it, rescue.bin is 1474560 bytes, so won't fit! The
rescue.bin file on http://..../images-1.20/ will fit on a standard
floopy, but how does this differ from the /images-1.44/ version?

Thanks.
