Re: How are base disks created?

[Bruce Perens <bruce-5717@debian.novare.net>]

I guess I didn't answer the question about the base disks. They are
a gzip-compressed tar archive taken from the file base1_3.tgz (also
available on our FTP archive). The archive is split into floppy-sized
pieces and a 512-byte header is put on each floppy. The program that does
this is floppy-split in the boot-floppies package.

	Thanks
