I don't know about the latter half of that, but I have used the 2.88 mb image as the boot floppy for an ISO disk image when doing FTP installations. Works great. I'd love to have CD rescue disk that was updatable to STABLE kernels and could have my mix of devices, editors, etc. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
