2.2.6 pre-release "slop" available

[Adam Di Carlo <adam@onshore.com>]

http://lully.debian.org/~tausq/20000201/ 

Let us know if it's functional, and if not, why not.

I'm pretty sure there are still network config issues.

Included is the changelog since 2.2.5.

I'm hoping to get a green or red light very soon so I can upload 2.2.6
tomorrow at a reasonable time (probably during the day, about 12 to 16
hours from now).

boot-floppies (2.2.6) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * control: depend on python-xml (closes: Bug#56368)
  * scripts/rootdisk/strip_executables.sh renamed from strip_executables,
    some fixes
  * documentation: README-compact added, other updates
  * dbootstrap: mke2fs makes 2.0 kernel compatable filesystems by default
    -- this option can be changed when if using the 'verbose' flag; add a
    'flavor=' bootarg flag handling, and fix the rescue.bin and
    drivers.tgz setting function to use this if set; improve a few
    messages but many more still need more improvement; INFOMSG, ERRMSG,
    and DEBUGMSG were fixed so they actually work; improve the lilo
    configuration; remove dbootstrap's dependancies on busybox 
    (closes: Bug#27224, Bug#39617, Bug#31559, Bug#41901); prompt prior to
    reboot if we just partitioned a mounted disk (closes: Bug#56270);
    net-fetch flavors should work now (closes: Bug#56473); install-mbr
    invoked with args '-e -F' to disable floppy booting (closes: Bug#56821)
  * fixes in modconf and base-config improve many problems
  * i18n: Japanese, Hungarian and Russian updates
  * busybox: updates, fixes, significantly, the segfaulting ping error,
    umount, init, and syslog problems (closes: Bug#56603)
  * documentation: some updates -- documentation not completely Potato
    updated, however
  * alpha: porting updates, esp. changes to support Milo booting, fix
    library reduction on alpha (note that only alpha and i386 use library
    reduction, which is a shame)
  * rescue (i386): fix f6.txt and f7.txt issues, include f8.txt; set
    flavor properly, which fixes the 'compact' handling
  * base: remove gconv-modules
  * remove some derived files from CVS which shouldn't have been there
    anyhow
