It won't be possible to do the side-by-side-lists display, though.

It is available at

I am now producing boot-floppies 2.3.5. I am building for the
following arches:
- i386
- powerpc
I can also build on sparc if needed; I'll do that later if no one else
gets to it I guess.

Intermittently during testing, I've found that the tail
/var/log/messages running on tty3 sometimes reports "no such file or
directory." I assume this is because the messages file simply doesn't
exist yet.
