As Gabriel was trying to say, we don't need boot "floppies" for the newer
machines. What would work though is to have an install kernel which
supports all hardware and has the sysinst install file system in it. That
way newer machines could use it off of a file system and older systems
could netboot it. Note: this is all in addition to something which works
for floppies.

Take care,
