1 Alright well I had been working on one with 2.4.21 kernel but you seem
2 to know what you are doing and I was fumbling through it so have at it.

4 Although I would definitely hope we can get a one-disk thing going. The
5 earlier description of a "gentooish tomsrtbt" is pretty much what I had
6 in mind. However if we need to have maybe two disks to ensure maximum
7 hardware support, I think that getting the widest range of hardware
8 support is what is most important. As long as the disk creation and
9 subsequent usage are well documented (as always).

11 Thanks for taking the iniative on this. While I don't know anything
12 about boot floppies, let me know if you need a beta tester. Like I
13 said, I have a handful of machines that need it.
