iffy.  those meant "install on one floppy drive now."

you still have to swap disks & reboot more than you should have to,
if you're installing from one floppy drive.  thankfully, it no longer
is necessary for other install methods.


the real solution is, as some have pointed out, to use a memory root,
but the problem with that is that it's really painful to sacrifice
~1.2M, on a 4M machine...
