I thought maybe he was asking how to build the boot.flp image rather than
to put the boot.flp onto the floppy.
I want to make one image too ; I want to include the new matcd driver so
I won't have to borrow a SCSI CD-ROM every time I want to re-install
FreeBSD. But even after taking a look at the /usr/src/release, I still
find it's beyond my aiblity to understand what's going on there.
