That's *great* news, Christian!
Sven: Can Christian's description of the process somehow be included
in the installer manual? It's an excellent first-hand description of
the process with all it's pitfalls!
Enjoy!

@Sven: 20051031 boot.img works, but it will not throw out the floppy
when it asks for the second disk root.bin - there is no soft eject
command issued, I guess. As you surely know, apple forgot the

Thanks for this very informative email, i have no time to handle this, but
other with oldworld interest may show up and fix it. The etch release is still

Use the links on the top of the article - the pdf has a higher
resolution of the figure. There is also speedboot.tar.gz to get which
has some source that the paper describes.
