Boot and base disks packaging

[hilliard@metrolink.net (Robert D. Hilliard)]

     It is difficult to sort out the various files pertaining to a new
installation from the long list of files on Incoming.  It would be
helpful if all of these files could be combined into three .tgzfiles -
one tarball containing all files for 1.2mb disks, one for 1.44 mb
disks, and the base2_0.tgz as presently distributed.  A version
number, probably a date-based version number, should be included in
the tar files name.  During the bo testing phase, we sometimes had
several new versions released in a day.

     I am thinking of this primarily as an aid to the testers during
the pre-release pahse.  Whether or not this packaging would be
desirable permanently would be open to discussion.

Bob
