        There is something very nice about being able to take a floppy
        along to a machine with a network interface and no other special
        software, and to perform a full install. I've used various
        vintages on NetBSD install on i386, sparc, sun3, and vax... The
        current sysinst is by far the nicest of those (I confess ignorance
        with respect to the amiga install).

        I think it would be nice to have an option to do either...
