Um, before I apply this, two questions:
why do you need the preferences? What features does it afford the
boot-floppies builder?

I don't mind the concept of adding more to the root filesystem, but
the problem is you have to deal right now with the fact that any room
we have now we're going to need for the fonts and message catalogs of
i18n floppies.
Plus other arches often don't have that much space available, esp 64
bit

For the time being I just commented out mac-de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap.gz in

It seems like boot-floppies should depend on sudo - I think it's just
a small addition in debian/control, to the depends line, but until I
get up to speed on boot-floppies, I prefer to send patches etc here.
