I'm uploading kernel-image-2.4.4-apus and kernel-patch-2.4.4-apus (to build
yorself with kernel-package) packages. I've had to hack around a few minor
bugs in the kernel-package APUS support and the image package thinks APUS uses
LILO, I hope that will be rectified soon. For now just say no to all LILO
related questions.
The good news is that the image is even smaller than I thought, I didn't think
of the fact that it's stripped before gzipping. Maybe we can put it on a
single floppy with boothack after all?
As always looking forward to comments and suggestions,
