Hmmm. He has a good point there. In fact, IMHO it is pretty bad that we don't support the Beta4 floppy images and netboot any more (20040430 is Beta4!). This could cause a lot of unnecessary "failed installation" reports. Shouldn't we keep udebs for abandoned kernel versions available on the mirrors a bit longer?
