I thought that the kernel in the miboot floppies were specific just to OldWorld machines. And you already have many flavours of it being built. I understand that the kernels have to be generic, but, say, including one specific feature of a pegasos machine in a miboot floppy isn't something that I would expect (even if it can be offloaded to a ramdisk). -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
