Summary: mkautoinstalldiskette fails

Initial Comment:
I'm using systemimager-i386boot-standard-3.2.0-4.

The files to be copied (by mkautoinstalldiskette) to a
1.44MB floppy don't fit there.

Workaround:

Edit  mkautoinstalldiskette. Change any "fd0" to "fd0u1680"

rename initrd.img -> initrd.img.gz
gzip -d initrd.img.gz
mount this initrd.img: "mount -o loop initrd.img /mnt"

Copy all files /mnt/* to another location. (cp -a)

Create the directories tmp lib new_root. The cp command
claims these to be not created hardlinks.

Edit the copy of etc/init.d/functions. 

Change "mount /dev/fd0 /floppy" to 
"mount /dev/fd0u1680 /floppy"

mkfs.cramfs -b 4096 dir_with_copied_files new-initrd

gzip new-initrd

Replace:
/usr/share/systemimager/boot/i386/standard/initrd.img

by a copy of  new-initrd.gz

Run mkautoinstalldiskette again.
