Folks,

	Hmm.  Well, I can't use the floppy images from 1.6, because 
they're broken.  And I just found out that there was a change between 
1.5.3 and 1.6, where sparc/binary/sets/kern.tgz is now gone and 
replaced by three separate files named kern-GENERIC*.tgz.

	Which means that you can't use the floppy images from 1.5.2 (and 
presumably 1.5.3) to install 1.6, because kern.tgz doesn't exist 
anymore (not even as a symlink to one of the other three files).


	If we can't get the floppy images for 1.6 fixed, can we at least 
get a symlink created so that we can use older floppy images to 
install 1.6 instead of whatever version they were generated for?
