root1440.bin is not included explicitly.
[09:19:30 bf]$ tar ztf bf-common.tar.gz
common/
common/base2_2.tgz
common/drivers.tgz
And the contents of common/base2_2.tgz is what seems to me a minimal debian
system: there is all the root directory tree with with programs in it. After
untaring it I got:
[09:23:26 common]$ ls
base2_2.tgz boot dev etc home lib proc sbin usr
bin cdrom drivers.tgz floppy initrd mnt root tmp var
[09:23:28 common]$ ls boot/
boot.b chain.b mbr.b os2_d.b.preserved
boot.b.preserved chain.b.preserved os2_d.b
[09:23:52 common]$ ls bin
ae dd fgrep ls ping setserial true
arch df grep mkdir ping6 sh umount
bash dir gunzip mknod ps sleep uname
cat dmesg gzip mktemp pwd stty uncompress
chgrp dnsdomainname hostname more rbash su vdir
chmod echo kill mount rm sync zcat
chown egrep ln mv rmdir tar
cp false loadkeys netstat run-parts tempfile
date fdflush login pidof sed touch
and so on.
What is this bf-common.tar.gz anyway? Is it a file from which the boot disks
are created by dividing it into the required size?
