Yes, you have guessed it. As a result of the recent feedback we have had about the origional 2.0.5-RELEASE, we have gone poking and found a couple of bugs on the origional boot.flp image. There is now a /pub/FreeBSD/2.0.5-RELEASE/UPDATES directory on ftp.cdrom.com and freefall.cdrom.com with a version of boot.flp which will fix the following problems: - The kernel was too big to boot on 4Mb machines. - It was possible to specify the filesystem mount points in such a way that the program would mount the filesystem before the parent filesystem was mounted (e.g. it would mount /usr/local and then /usr) As the CDROM has not gone to replication yet, this updated floppy image will be appearing on the CDROM. Sorry to all those who had problems with the first boot floppy set - I will personally nail Jordan to his chair and nail the chair to the floor in front of his computer the next time we roll a release!
