The guy at LSL says that he will make a Debian-only CD (with the whole
thing on it) if we can come up with a single floppy installation
system (he will include the single floppy too).  (He also said
something about helping to support the project too.)

The 6-floppy system is a huge drawback - I've seen a lot of complaints
about it on USENET - it seems people have trouble digging up six
floppies without errors.
