Hello,
I played with the new boot floppy, and have some comments, sorry for the
inconvenience if already in your todo list.
1) In the ``select distribution to load'' menu, you are not warned
about taking the DES distrib if not inside the US. Maybe, you are if
you really select DES, I didn't tried. (You are warned in another
choice if you try to grad the source code).
2) I got ``/ is full'' on the second terminal.
3) Some documents are missing (e.g slice.hlp, disklabel.hlp).
4) After escaping to a shell, I was not able to run a command
ls, halt: not found (note that I tried this before writing on
the disk).
5) I liked the xxxC input mode for rounding partitions to cylinder
boundaries. thanks!
6) I didn't find a way to preserve partitions. I think you can if the
disk already use slices.
