I've been able to build the floppy 'net' image without any trouble only
by installing the needed packages on the host system (and removing the
bogl stuff from the floppy tree), so I guess everything's there to build
the package.
If you want an easy way to find what's missing, just try to run the
build process by entering the 'build' directory and run
"make TYPE=whateveryouwant build".
Then you'll soon see which packages are missing. Install them on the
host system, and re-run, it'll work fine.
