Hi, Eric,
I have played somewhat with diskwait and I have some problems with it.
First, diskwait=yes works in syslinux.cfg  but in leaf.cfg you need to 
use KMCD_diskwait=yes.
Furthermore, I had the idea that diskwait looked first at the original 
disk and when it didn't find any packages than asked for the second disk 
and if this was not sufficient it did it again until all packages were 
loaded.
I tested diskwait the following way:
On the first disk I have the necessary files + root,lrp and libcrpto.lrp 
as they are large. This disk is 1.34 MB. On the second disk I have the 
rest which is 1.45 MB.
diskwait in syslinux gave: "insert 2nd disk" immediately after starting 
LINUXRC.
I then tried diskwait in leaf.cfg but that didn't work. I then set 
KMCD_diskwait in leaf before the LRP= line(s). That gave the same result 
as diskwait in syslinux.cfg.
Setting KMCD_diskwait after the LRP= line didn't do anything ( and was 
skipped in the parsing of the leaf.cfg script).
I therefore have a problem as I want to load all packages together. Of 
course I can install packages later and copying them from another system 
but I think that a solution to load Bering_uclib using multiple floppies 
with packages would be very welcome.
USB could be a solution but old systems (often used for firewalls) do 
miss then.
Hope you can help me out..  .
Joep
