Phew.  That's reassuring, because I wasn't really looking forward to
digging through the boot-floppies source again ;)

If/when someone will have a look, it might be usefull to reimplement the tests done by the potato installer which compared the size of the files after download to what was expected, though!

An error message saying that the file is not what it should have been is much easier to interpret than an read IO error on a floppy device which doesn't exist...

Thanks
