Hi,

   From 3.0-19990110-SNAP.

   The boot floppy created from boot.flp does not work. From the following
it looks like the loader doesn't understand a gzipped kernel.


No /boot/loader

boot:
No /kernel

>>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot: ?
. .. kernel.gz boot.help kernel.config

>>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot: /kernel.gz
Invalid format

  Comments, critiques, and helpful pointers are always welcome.

Thanks!
John
