I am trying to make a boot floppy per the instructions in the NetBSD Guide
(chapter 20). However, there are several problems.

1. When trying to make the .fs files, the make fails saying that it cannot
find several files ( /distrib/common/Makefile.distrib and
/common/Makefile.tarfloppy ).

2. When I grab the .fs files off of the CD, I still cannot proceed because I
do not have a /usr/src/distrib/i386/floppies/fdset folder.

Is this the proper way to make boot floppies? Is there another way? Where do
I get a current set of makefiles for making floppies?
