And, if you first look under /doc you only have zero byte files under a non-unix-flavored OS, a they usually don't have links.

It mentions : vanilla, compact, idepci, and bf2.4 and some additional information. As there is also a text file alogside the html files, it should be readable while installing. A small plea: I do believe most people will first jump to /doc, do a ls, read install, jump there and only see 0 byte files. (Especially if you have a look at the CDs under M$. A short textfile saying see under /install/doc might solve this. Not a big deal but s small help. > No, as someone else mentioned we're not working on boot-floppies > any more.

Some CD(-ROM)s won't boot properly, some (older) Laptops willl also have problems to boot from CDs. Will it, for some time in the future, still be possible to boot in a differnt way (loadlin etc). And, with the CD set (bnary only) now spanning 7 volumes, will there son be DVDs? (Just a question). > In that case, you'll be interested in a little program called cruft. > It needs decent documentation, too. Sounds promising. Will investigate.
