I'd like to add a summary to the wiki of what scenarios all the floppy images are useful for. Does this exist anywhere or can someone give a quick rundown of where I am wrong on the difference between the floppy images:

hd.img - install from hard drive
hd_usb.img - Install from hard drive with support for usb keyboards and mice?????


I think this one used to be for usb attached hard disks. Probably obsolete.

cdrom.img - Install using cd images when one cannot boot from cd
cdrom-changedisk.img - ??????
hdcdrom_usb.img - install from iso image on hard drive with usb support?????

Install from USB attached hard disks or CD's

network.img - Install via NFS or FTP
network_gigabit_usb.img - Same with modules for gigabit ethernet adapters
pcmcia.img - network install with pcmcia nic


It'd be nice if it would support pcmcia usb adapters.... (hint hint).
