Cool. I've looked into making a boot floppy by itself before, but I never had enough incentive to do it. It's always been easier to just do a make release or yank the disk from the machine in question and put it in another machine. :) > BTW.

There are some things that need to get done before that happens, though. (7890 support, and I would like to get my CD changer code in as well. I'm not sure if I'll have time to finish the changer stuff, though.)
