  Modified:    release   Makefile
  Log:
  Fix a bug in the /etc populating copy.
  
  Change root.flp from a new format CPIO archive to a tar archive.
  Unless we're willing to change the main tarballs from tar format to
  "newc" (or, even better, "crc") cpio format, we need to use one common
  one for all and that's tar for now.  Install will now grab "root floppy"
  from an ftp site if that's what you've got set.
  
  Fix even more gripes from Poul's list.

  P.S.  As soon as I get the distfiles copied over to freefall tomorrow
  morning, those of you wishing to test minimal installs over ftp should
  be able to do so by grabbing the boot floppy and nothing else.  Keep
  your eyes open for my announcement.
