The current root floppy is an ext2 filesystem. So for this to help,
we'd have to make the disk image be the initramfs cpio without an

I've implemented this. Please modularise ext2.

New kernel; new bloat. Didn't we just free up 100k on the boot floppy?
i think 100k is too heavy, the solution is to reduce the kernel size.
or coding init in C ?

Did you include the usb-discover udeb on the root floppy?
yes
I also tried _not_ switching the floppy in time for the timeout.
It then errors out with
Cannot find root floppy; /dev/floppy0: cannot mount

Would it be possible to limit that to 2 (maybe 3) times?
