	I'm using 1.5.2 right now and would like this patch.  I have the 
PLIP cable and an old 486 laptop with 4mb of RAM and no PCMCIA slots, 
that I could use to interface with my NetBSD box allowing me to move the 
monitor it is using to another system.  I have Tiny Linux on the laptop, 
but I want to get a custom, extremely paired down version of NetBSD on 
it.  If I could do the install over PLIP instead of using countless 
floppies(no CDROM drive) that would be great.

Of course it runs NetBSD
