For normal floppy-disks one uses two images. kern.flp and mfsroot.flp For devices that have a capacioty of 2.88MB and up there is boot.flp which combines kern.flp and mfsroot.flp into one .. suitable for CDROMs, ZIP-disks etc... -------------------- Pascal Hofstee - daeron@shadowmere.student.utwente.nl -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS d- s+: a-- C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W- N+ o?
