I think that we should use some magic to make this more intuitive. That is, I think we should have the loader.rc in the mfsroot set a variable 'booted_from="floppy"' and have the loader.rc on the CD set it 'booted_from="cd"' and then have sysinstall pop up a dialog asking the user if they want to insert the driver floppy if the kernel env var booted_from is set to "floppy". Perhaps instead it should be that the boot floppy on archs that support a drivers floppy should add a 'driver_floppy="YES"' that sysinstall would go off of. Hmm, I'll work on that.

People who feel moved to debug this should feel free :-).
