Running "./build.sh -x -X /usr/xsrc release" for i386 fails with an
error message, that basically says "Image is too big to fit on a single
floppy" or something like that:
*** Failed target: boot-tiny1.fs

*** Error code 1
I usually fix it by editing
"/usr/src/distrib/i386/floppies/bootfloppy-tiny/Makefile" and adding the
following line to it:
FLOPPYMAX= 2
I'm sure some people are aware of this problem, as it keeps showing up
over and over again. I don't fully understand the build process and
adding "FLOPPYMAX= 2" could be an ugly hack. What do you think would be
a correct way to solve this?
