Cool ya thats what i was lookin for i dd it
onto a floppy and it boots up.. the only thing is that
it seems to lock up pretty darn quick. just freezes ither
at the login prompt or after i login.
Welp that saved my lots of time though. I had spent the
entire day redoing lilo to work with Elks.. i had
gotten as far as the final loader and was stuck inside
second.b where they were trying to do some ems stuff.
