I've built a fixit.flp yesterday that has been exceeding the 1200 KB watermark by only 40 KB. It easily fit onto a 1440 KB however. Not a too bad start. There've been some items missing (e.g. ft(8)), but some other things are certainly unnecessary on a fixit floppy. All this happened with the default /usr/src/release/Makefile, with the exception of bumping the 1200 figures to 1440 after the first failure. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
