[-- Attachment #1 --] blackend> PC98 arch needs installation floppies, so it should not be "just" removed. eadler> I was unaware of this. Do you think that the text should remain as is eadler> or could parts of it be reworked to remove floppies as a primary eadler> installation method? Perhaps a note about ppc could be added? I agree with blackend@ that it should not just be removed, since floppy images of i386, amd64, pc98, and sparc64 for 7.3 and 7.4-RELEASE are also available. I also agree with eadler@ that floppy is not a primary installation media. How about moving the text to chapter 2.13 (Preparing Your Own Installation Media) like CDROM images?
