Greetings,
   Two quick questions.  One, is the MPPC compression supported by FreeBSD
I'm currently running uncompressed due to the fact that Predictor1 is unstable
with the dialup machines (bay annex dialups) and they do not appear to give 
me Deflate or Deflate24.  My dialup is a Cirrus Logic 33.6k.  I am connecting
at 33.6k.  This is verified at my end and theirs.  The errors I am getting 
are unexpected ACK and inappropriate ACK with Predictor1.
   Second.  I am getting the following message when attempting to boot a 
1.44M floppy using the 3.1-RELEASE boot disk.

/kernel text=0x18be72 data=0x2eb35c+0x1dcc0 zf_read: fill error

elf_loadexec: archsw.readin failed
can't load 'kernel'

this happens exactly the same for 3 disks created on two different machines.
the command used:
dd if=boot.flp of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=2880
or just
dd if=boot.flp of=/dev/fd0

Both of these I am stumped.  I looked for a bit in the freebsd.org site for
info, but was unable to find anything.

Current system stats:
MB: Generic Triton II chipset
Proc: Intel P-120
Memory: 32MB
HDD: WD 1.6GB
NIC: Genius GE2000III
Video: Generic 1MB ISA
Modem: Cirrus Logic 33.6k (off the chipset: MD3450D)

If there is any more info that is needed please let me know.  Otherwise thanks
in advance.

Mark
