>Description:
	Install tiny boot disk installs generic kernel for large install
	by default. Custom installation must be used to replace the
	large kernel with the tiny kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Install from tiny boot disk. Try booting on a computer with less 
	than 8mg of memory. Failure to boot will occur.
>Fix:
	Work-around: select custom installation, deselect large generic
	kernel, select tiny kernel, continue with install.

	Fix: Make tiny boot disk select tiny kernel by default.
